END OF HOLIDAY 3

Bade farewell to Manuel and Ethel at the station. Two finer hosts in this gorgeous city one could not find. Train to Toulouse. Somehow first class was cheaper when I booked, so here I am. Unfortunately, my socialist and environmental principles don't actually allow me to enjoy the experience, but I can report that the seats are huge, comfortable, and there's loads of legroom. I even have a solo window seat, the best way to travel short of teleportation. Lovely. But vive la revolution, obviously.
