Back on the Train . . .

Well - ALMOST.

As I mentioned in my Post of the 19th September we had booked ALL our Train tickets before leaving Australia.

This was a very good idea and worked well - with the exception of our Trip from Frankfurt to Strasbourg.

It was now time to leave France for a week and head back into Germany
- so INSTEAD of getting to the Station with all our luggage and then go looking for our train.

We decided to check things out a couple of days earlier.
And JUST AS WELL!

They say a Picture is worth a thousand words - and more so when dealing with Tourists who don't speak the Language.

Roughly translated - "We were digging a new Rail Tunnel and it sort of collapsed the tracks we were digging under....."

So - désolé, vous devez prendre le bus.

Great -
Back on "Le Bus" it is !

Oh well - at least we were not the only ones that were in this predicament and as long as no one had been hurt in the collapse -

It became just one more adventure!

And in fact, something I may investigate as alternative to taking the train for short trips in the future.

Ouibus to Karlsruhe
and then Train to Munich.

One day - if ever we do this again, I will stop at Karlsruhe and explore more of this fascinating City than just the Train Station.
