On my way! (not THE way)

I really lucked out on the flight. I had the window seat and the two other women in the row didn't seem happy about it. Anyway, I put in my earplugs and covered my eyes and went to sleep. A couple of hours later the smell of food woke me and I noticed the row-mates had left (maybe I was snoring or worse in my sleep). For the rest of the flight I was able to stretch out across the three seats. The jealous guy across the aisle snapped the picture for me.

Arriving in Paris, there were no border police and they announced that the security was all detained on another matter. They showed up 20 minutes later, but not before everyone was googling to see if there was a terrorist attack.

My pack arrived safe & sound and I'm now sitting in CDG waiting for my train to Bayonne which hasn't shown up on the monitors yet.

Looking forward to the 1st class seat.

I can see a few others with backpacks and can't help wondering if I'll see them along the Way. Looking forward to the jazz, samba & grande bal advertised for the Fete de Bayonne tonight.

Saw sunflowers!

I have high hopes for getting pictures of sunflowers in bloom as I saw fields of them not quite fully bloomed from the train. Lovely.

It's odd waiting for my next train and smelling smoke in the lounge!

I'll be in Bayonne in a couple of hours or so.
