At last the time arrived for Gig and Terrie to board this historic train, which chugged into the station like a ghost of elegant times past, its art deco exterior and interior restored in magnificent detail.
Leaving the station in Venice the train traveled through the Dolomites mountain range and past lush Italian vineyards into the Alps across the awe-inspiring Brenner Pass, providing a moving canvass of breathtaking scenery for its passengers. The important to budget travel is to plan in advance. When it occurs to family trips, globetrotting, well-deserved holidays and/or going to see new places we have never been before, the actuality of cost and budgeting is generally in the back of our minds. Considering and spending our travel budget carefully is a priority for most families. Lowering spending and prices, while still taking pleasure in your vacation to its fullest, is the key to guaranteed achievements and fiscal liability. Your pocketbook and family will thank you! The thought regarding saving money while vacationing is simple: Even if your personal budget is really tight, you can still take a break and enjoy life! Simply put, life is just too short to never step out of the door or leaving the homestead! Also thinking about that while traveling, regardless of whether on a resources or not, even the smallest of things can all add op to a large vacation or travel bill!. Along the way tea time was celebrated with tea and pastries for everyone. Finally the train paused for a stop in Innsbruck so passengers could disembark to stretch their legs as snow began falling on this famous ski resort, site of previous Olympic Games.
Back on board, it was time to dress for cocktails and dinner, and the Orient Express admonishes guests, You are never overdressed on the Orient Express. Elegantly gowned ladies and gentlemen in tuxedos gathered in the club car and piano bar, where they enjoyed a cocktail for 15 Euros and a rich choice of canaps for 15 to 390 Euros for Beluga caviar.This is not your local happy hour!.
After a fabulously decadent dinner, followed by after-dinner drinks and conversation with some of their fascinating fellow passengers, Gig and Terrie adjourned to their compartment and their night on the train. This is when modern conveniences can be missed. Some compartments have upper and lower beds (Remember the Pullman cars?) Some have two lower berths, but most dont have private bathsthe toilet is down the hall.
Terrie and Gig enjoy the elegant meal.
