We made it to Tours. Gisele stayed here so many times over the years that she formed a friendship with an elderly couple who used to rent rooms to students. They are too old now to deal with students, but they welcomed Gisele, and by extension the rest of us, as old friends. The lady speaks some Spanish, so for once I could communicate without Gisele having to interpret.
Pictures and more details later.

What is it like to go 185 in a train?

It feels fast! The most impressive thing is passing another train going the opposite direction at the same speed. It lasts less than 2 seconds. By the time I look up it is past. The relative speed is 370 MPH. I’d hate to be in a collision at that speed.
