We took a 14 hour over night train on Thursday, October 16 from Vienna to Paris. Liz Hansen, Cameron Armstrong, Autumn Warmen, Gary Turner, and were off for our first free travel experience. Unfortunately, we were not able to book a sleeper car because they were all booked when we tried. So, we thought we would just fold down all the seats in the compartment and it would be like one big bed and we could get some sleep. Well, we thought wrong. The train we got on was much older than the other Eurail Trains we had been on, and of course the seats didn't fold down. So, it was a long night of trying to get comfortable enough to get some sleep. We got to Paris at about 6 AM on Friday morning and had to make it to the Ryan Air airport in BeauVois, about 45 minutes from Paris. We took a train about 40 minutes and then had to take a bus to get us to the airport to catch our 9:00 flight to Dublin!
