Journey through the Alps

15th March 2008

Today, we sat all day in the bus, the bus passes by Dijon and then Beaunne, Macon, basically the Burgundy wine area and then towards Italy and the Alps district.

The journey in the morning was smooth, I didn’t sleep at all in the bus as the Burgundy landscape was captivating and occupying my mind as I tried to associate with those Burgundy wine that I have tasted to the area that the bus passed by.

Later in the afternoon, the traffic became worst as everyone is heading for the ski holiday towards Grenoble.

Once we passed through a 17km tunnel (shared by France and Italy), we finally arriving to the Italy boarder. It has been a long day, almost 9 hours in the bus….

But the Alps scenery has been amazing; we passed through valleys, hills and uncountable number of tunnels and finally reached Turin in the evening.
