The High Speed Eurostar Train to Paris

7 September 2013

Today we traveled by high speed Eurostar train under the English Channel to Paris. 
The channel tunnel, also referred to as the "Chunnel", is a 31.4 mile undersea rail tunnel, linking the United Kingdom and France. The Chunnel possesses the longest undersea portion of any tunnel in the world. 

Ready for the journey....

Finding our car #15 ....

And then settling into our seats.

Walking through the train...

The train is going so fast that one can't focus on the sights going by. (186 mph)




Has anyone ever heard of an "Oh shit handle" on the passenger side of a car?  This is the train version.
