Day 5 - Travel to Paris
Everything was just as planned. We got up around 8 am. Checked out of our great hotel and with lugguge in tow.. we went to the metro and on our way to the airport.
All on schedule...
...except when we got to Barcelona-Sans to get on to the train to the airport, that's when things took a different turn.
We were waiting for the train to the airport on the Platform 9/10. When a train came up, we boarded it. The only thing that D and I didn't do was read where the train was going.
After about 10-15minutes, a conductor came to look at tickets. When he looked our tickets he said we were on the wrong train. Right there, both our hearts sank.
WHAT THE F*CK!!!!
The worst was that we didn't know when the train was going to stop. A nice girl next to us had the train station schedule and I could tell she felt SO bad for us... even though she couldn't do anything for us.
So, we're sitting there for what felt like eternity. The train finally decided to stop at 10:20am. We were in the middle of nowhere. We then hoped on the next train back to Barcelona-Sans. By the time we got to Bacelona-Sans.. it was 11:40am. And thank goodness by the time we got to the station.. the RIGHT train to the airport came up.
We were at the airport and checked in by 12:10pm.. to make our flight to Paris leaving at 12:50pm.
We were the most luckiest two ppl in the world today.
To top off our first nite in Paris, we walked the Rue de Cler and took a nite boat ride along the Seine.
