Travel makes my butt hurt

Especially when you took a 9 hr bus ride from London to Paris, followed by a 13 hr train ride from Paris to Lisbon.

Both trips had their classic moments. First the bus ride. Right before we left the station the French bus driver spoke to a man (don´t know nationality) in French. The man shook his head, stood up, turned around and asked, "Does anyone know how to get to the Dover Highway? Cos the driver doesn´t..." -Jaw drops-

The overnight train ride to Lisbon was one of those classic european train rides. Cramped compartment and drunken friendly louts who keep speaking to you in Portuguese as if you were a local, all in an old, stuttering, old style european train. Wicked.

Just went around Lisbon. I´ll post abt Portugal in a few days´ time. Right now? "Knackered".
