We have read about this restaurant, Le Train Bleu, a few years ago and have simply not been able to get here.
With our hotel being on the station, we could not let this slip by.
Since we already had dinner plans, we opted for afternoon cocktails.
Maybe next time we will eat here…
After a long day of traveling in cars, airplanes and already 2 trains, we made it to our hotel.
And since our train tomorrow leaves very early, we booked for location: the hotel on the train station!
Rest now?
NEVAH!
We are heading back to the city center for dinner with a good friend. We can sleep when we get back home. Eventually.

And we’re off…
In case you were wondering, we did get three weeks of clothes for winter in Europe in our carry-ons!
An auspicious start!
Not officially packing yet.
Trying to make sure everything we want to take can fit into the carry-on. Three weeks in Europe, in winter, with only a carry-on.
Challenge accepted!

After nearly two years of planning and working on it, we are finally here.
Today, in exactly one week, we leave for Pieter’s birthday trip. Not just any birthday, a big one.
He turns 60!
To celebrate this big number, he wanted to do what he does best: Eat. Drink. Travel. From there the idea of a culinary adventure through Europe took form.
Since it is a big birthday, we invited friends and friends-of-friends to join us for part of the journey. There will be a big group of people with us on the cruise to celebrate on the actual day.
A quick overview of our itinerary:
In case you are wondering… in every city (except for one or two on the cruise) we have an organized food tour.
There is also twenty (already planned and booked) train journeys in there!
As always, expect some stories about adventures, praising delicious “nibbly-bits and drinky-poos” and lots of photos as we try our best to keep up this journal.
The gówniaki is not impressed, and/or depressed.
