Oh fuck. That was close. I hadn’t been checking the time often enough, and when I was buying groceries for the night train I noticed I had 11 minutes until departure. And I still had to pick up my bag from the hotel. Some 100 metres to the hotel, and 200 metres to the station. Luckily, the departure platform was close to the entrance. I made it one minute before departure. Now I just need to find a corkscrew. Taking the #IntercityNotte to Lecce. (Not using #Interrail for this leg.)
The night’s route. Bypassing Milan, via Bologna to the Adriatic coast and then down to Bari and Lecce.
The toothbrush of the amenity kit works fine as an eating utensil. (Forgot to take my spork.) Enjoying this insalata nocina and the fine Barbera d’Asti. Which fits perfectly as we just stopped in Asti. Local wine!
The salad is a bit too mayonnaisey for my taste. The cheese is OK.
@tml The uber-mythical night train to Lecce! Nice that it runs once again (it used to be an Espresso). Here's the soundtrack appropriate for the trip: Giovanna Marini, "I treni per Reggio Calabria" (different side, same story).
