France 2015 Day 1

Resuming this Blog on a daily basis for the duration of this 4 week stay in France.

If any French Model Railway incidents occur they will of course be recorded.

Otherwise, it will be the usual mix of  self-important trivia.

Yesterday:

7am    -     Edinburgh Airport

Over Marseille

11.35am   -    Marseille Airport

The terminus building at Marseille is a classic - a perfectly proportioned cuboid. It is well named a "Hall".

It has the feeling of a Stalinist University Lecture Theatre - utter simplicity - Ich Bin Meine Maschine

Main Hall Marseille Airport

LLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL
Last night's dinner:

I'm most at home in modest French restaurants.

The set menu was £12.

The wine local.

Cuttle Fish

Early this morning:

The drum awaits beside the Mediterranean

South of Beziers

I really must get a bigger head.
