European train buffet line: preparations

European line last year.

Now go directly from domestic trains tourism European buffet is not widespread. So I think a lot of experience, a lot of experience to share. Write this travelogue is on this journey of remembrance.

This travel was a friend of mine invited to attend an event in the small town in Northern Germany Berlin Neubrandenburg, 9, 10 and 11 July.

This matter to determine only the beginning of August. I August 11, to apply for Schengen visas, in the Consulate 8 to 18. And then just booked my ticket. Because it's too late and plus season, most tickets are already sold out. Many setbacks, finally get it is from Bangkok and Helsinki two turn to Berlin's Thai and fenhang ticket (return trip is Nordic aviation Copenhagen a turn for the better). My travel plans after the events of the week the main countries with train travel. On the Internet to do a lot of homework, finally found Euler rail ticket office in Shanghai, people's Square West Jinling road. European train tickets are generally multinational tourism for buy ticket is a ticket for the kind of casual riding. Ticket can only be purchased outside of Europe, the species is also very complex. I finally bought that three countries (Germany and Italy) five days (without continuous) twin ticket (I went with my wife). In order for the ticket, really hurt a lot. First of all, it is necessary to comply with my trip, that is to go to the most worthy of a place, not to me early on unalterable Paris, French Riviera, and Venice. Secondly, convergence, I checked the European rail network for airfares, last from a few sets of programmes selected a set (the other as backup). Last thing, the price, must meet my requirements and is the lowest. Also, pass only includes the normal ticket price. If you are a high-speed trains and overnight train, positioning fees to pay. Locate either in the Shanghai Office, you can also set the main railway station in Europe. In the process of considering travel itinerary may change, I just booked before departure from Nice to Rome by overnight train. My trips are:

Shanghai-Bangkok-Helsinki-Berlin-Brandenburg-Berlin-Khas Ruhr-Strasbourg-Paris-Nice-Rome-Venice-Monaco/Monte-Carlo-Cannes-Paris-Mannheim-Berlin-Copenhagen-Shanghai (including transit interchange stations, of which the second Berlin to third Berlin between all by train)

The train line has the advantage that you can see the scenery, cheap, save time, more romantic.

The entire trip four days sleeping on the train. Annex I of the ticket.

Determine the travel and transportation to accommodation issues after.

Do I worry about the Neubrandenburg, aircraft around on the one night, the train I plan a fourth night, leaving only the need to address the two nights in Paris and Berlin by night. I'd in "poor" on the Internet and find an Paris Chinese family hotel, very cheap (small villa of double room, per night € 36, 360 Yuan). Contact after he let me half the money for flowed down to his Shanghai Bank account number. There is no official credentials, then do not sign what I plan to arrive before 11 pm. See the online evaluation of others, and finally decided to trust him, put money in the past. Then prove that this decision was right. Berlin hotel is online with a credit card. Just a sixingjiudian promotions, 50 euro a night. At home it's not cheap. But in Europe, this is almost the same as sent.

Last turn to the equipment.

I bring a camera, a few years ago bought Sony, 320 Megapixel, by two batteries. A prior to temporary buy digital companion, capacity 40G. There are also mobile phones (most of the time the flight mode, when the alarm clock and back-up camera. Sometimes short post receiving and dispatching short note). These three guys themselves are not large, but with three heavy charger! now I wish someone could invent a universal charger. There is also a small things have to say, just be sure to bring the European power conversion socket. Prior to Interbrew bought one in Germany and France are very well, didn't think Italy is not the same results in Rome more! spent an hour to buy conversion socket. By the way, before a book online that European train has a power outlet. The fact is all the overnight train! results in Rome at the end of the battery completely used up, the next morning in the face of Venice beauty camera cannot be used, but also good God our eyes in the station platform a corner to give me an outlet, but still very embarrassing. It seems to get home before homework or not.
