Saturday, July 6th. 11:31 I was scheduled to move to Lyon on TER from GENEVE, but the train was suspended. I asked the SBB staff. She told me that there was a substitute bus from the station.
However, the bus stopped at a train station about 70 km away from Geneva, and everyone was taken down. The staff seemed to explain why the bus stopped, but I couldn’t understand it. Then, the Indian who was next to me explained it as 2 o’clock while showing the railway company’s site on a smartphone. In other words, it means that the train will come around 2 o’clock. Indians are smart.
After 14:00, a second-class vehicle arrived. The train went to Lyon. Some people could not sit down. Arrived in Lyon with a delay of 2-3 hours. I was very hungry. I hurried and ate a Big McCook set at McDonald’s.
Travelers staying in Geneva will be given a card from the hotel that will provide free transportation in the city.
ジュネーブに宿泊している旅行者は市内の交通機関が滞在中は無料になるカードがホテルから配られます。
On July 5, I went to St. Pierre Cathedral in the old town.
7月5日は旧市街のサン・ピエール大寺院に行きました。
After that, I went to see the fountain of Lake Leman . On the way, I found a Versace sneaker.
その後、レマン湖の噴水を見に行きました。途中、ヴェルサーチのスニーカーを発見。
I went to Starbucks coffee because I was thirsty near the Rhone River. I was out of luck. I thought that the iced coffee here was about 500 yen. It was 7.2 francs. Medium size of cold brew.
I moved to Chambesy by train. There were no ticket gates or ticket gates on the train.
電車でChambesyに移動。路面電車もこの電車も、改札も検札もありません。おおらかな雰囲気です。
I found a place with a great view.
湖に向かうと、素晴らしい景色の場所をみつけました。
l’auberge. Lunch at a restaurant where students at a cooking school work. The lunch course was 42 francs with white wine, sparkling water and espresso.The food was delicious, but I felt uncomfortable with the waiter and waitress wine and espresso order.The focaccia was hard and dry.
However, when transferring to a large ropeway, a young Asian woman who had a conversation with the cleaning staff got in from the left of this image and closed the door. There were couples behind me, so the next gondola got me to ride and I decided to wait for the next gondola. However, another couple came. I gave up the monopoly on this day.
Tockener Steg 2939m is the transfer station for the ropeway. I like the scenery from here most. Everything is a scale that should be expressed in 1km units. For example, if you look down on the village, there will be a distance of less than 2 km. huge.
I went to the Matterhorn Glacier Paradise before 4pm. This is the third time. This is wonderful. The ropeway stopped twice today. I was impatient because I stopped in the air.
On the way, I passed Montreux. The view of the high mountains and lake was great.
途中,モントルーを通過しました。高い山と湖の景色が素晴らしかったです。
Arrival in Geneva. The air conditioner of the hotel broke down and I put up with a 29 degree room. But I couldn’t sleep, so I went to the front desk at 21:00. They exchanged for another room. A good hotel. NH Hotel.
First of all, I purchased Peak Pass 2 Days at the Gornago Railway window. It was about 215 francs. I moved to the ropeway on foot. I took a small ropeway and then switched to a large ropeway. Small ropeways open doors at five stations for climbers to descend. When going to the end point, do not get off.
I started with laundry on this day. I found a coin laundry in about 20 minutes on foot from the hotel. 4 euros for laundry. 4 euros dry. Detergent 0.5 euro. When I was standing in front of the store during the laundry waiting time, two women spoke to me in Chinese. I didn’t understand the reason. I am Japanese. But she still spoke something in Chinese.
Next, when I was looking at the electric bulletin board at the station, a Chinese woman spoke to me again. She has shown me a ticket. She asked me where the train was. But I didn’t have a train or seat designation on the ticket, so I was able to answer the questions. It ’s strange today. I said Japanese. But Chinese speak in Chinese. Why? I departed at 12:23. I change at Brig station and go to Zermatt.
On June 29th, I moved to Milan. 11:25 Italo NTV9918 from FIRENZE and arrived at 13:15 MILANO. It was comfortable because it was a single seat at the end of the train.
I checked in at Best Western near Milan Central Station.
ミラノ中央駅近くのベストウェスタンにチェックイン。
Take the subway M3 from SONDORIO, the nearest station of the hotel. Head to DUOMO station. I didn’t know how to buy it at the vending machine, so I bought a ticket at the station store. I think it was 1.5 euros wherever I went. (In Japan, fares change depending on distance, but in Europe, one ride is the same fares.)
Incident occurred. When I went up the subway, a black man came along talking to me. He showed a rainbow colored string. Then he wrapped a string around my arm. He told me to pay the tip. A few black people gathered. I hurriedly left the place.
No euro was stolen and no injury occurred. But I am angry. Until now, I have only learned friendly and polite English. I should have spoken in Japanese.
The cathedral is wonderful. You may not be able to enter a religious facility unless you wear clothes with your shoulders and knees hidden. Sandals are not good either.
On June 28th (Friday), I got up early and took a walk. After 5 o’clock there are few people in Florence so you can go around slowly. There are many garbage trucks, so you have to be careful.
There were works that I have seen on books and TV, such as Carabaggio.It ’s a wonderful museum.
カラバッジオなど、本やテレビで見たことのある作品がありました。素晴らしい美術館です。
I liked the work of Gerald de Renotti, which was drawn with the light source in mind.
個人的には、光源を意識して描かれた、ゲラルドデレノッティの作品がよかったです。
After returning to the hotel and taking a break, I went to La SPADA for lunch. A set meal of 35 euros, still water, glass wine and espresso was 43 euros. Full stomach.Firenze bistecca is very delicious.
一度ホテルに戻り休憩してから、 La SPADAへ昼食に出かけました。35ユーロの定食とスチルウォーター、グラスワイン、エスプレッソで、43ユーロでした。満腹。ステーキだけでよかった。多過ぎ。イタリアの人はこんなの食べてるの?ステーキだけで500gなんだけど。
From Naples to Firenze, I got on Fletcherossa 9528, leaving Napoli at 11:00.
ナポリからフィレンツェは、ナポリ11:00発フレッチャロッサ9528を利用しました。
Between Rome and Naples, the seat was surrounded by a family of six, but this time I was able to relax because I could sit alone in a seat of four. In business class, drinks are distributed free of charge. 62.9 euros.
We had lunch at Mercato Centrale Florence. Lampredotto. It is a thing that sandwiched a cow’s stomach between bread. 4 euros. Plus, Cola was 2.5 euros.
