Le Train Jaune

The Yellow train. We drove for a couple of hours up into the mountains today. The road was something else! Through gorges and never a straight bit of road for more than a couple of hundred metres. The purpose of our trip was to ride the yellow train down through the Pyrenees - unfortunately we didn't go high enough for any cool mountain shots.

We only just caught the train on the way down and the train down was a bit packed and frantic, but on the way back up we were lucky enough to get some seats in an open air carriage.

The train clatters and winds its way up through the mountain pass and through several tunnels. The long drive home was rewarded by pizza and (more) red wine...
