FINALLY on our way to Toulouse after ending up back in Marseille after Aix. wooooo.
Train strikes = no seats = fun.
Hey Dad, there's a field. Do I get bonus points for the tractors?
More fields from the train window. This was probably when the train was stopped because people were protesting and striking ON the tracks.
Made it to Toulouse!
