After we knew about the cancellation of our bus tour, we decided to go to Strasbourg ourselves by the train. We didn't have enough time and had to give up visiting Colmar and Reichenweier (Riquewihr), but we tried to see at least Strasbourg, the capital of Alsace province in France.
We went back to the hotel to get the time schedule
book of the trains and then headed for the station. The picture shows the ticket that we got then. The abbreviation "von" is "from" likewise "nach" is "to", "ab" is "departure" and "an" means "arrival". This ticket is very understandable. We got on the IC (InterCity) and got off at Offenburg to change trains. Another picture was taken in Offenburg at that time. Can you see the letters on the train? "ALSACE S'Elsass" cheered me up. We took this train to Kehl.
(Vocabulary)
cheer sb ↔ up ＜人＞を元気づける, 活気づける
