Gare de Strasbourg

Sometimes when you are on a trip the only images you get time to consider are those from your hotel room window.

So after a long day’s journey by car , plane and train , a chaotic taxi ride ( to a restaurant which had forgotten to change its address on its web site when it moved) a delayed but still very pleasant and informative dinner with the German MEP and senior CDU politician David McAllister this became the image of the day - the brightly lit station in Strasbourg which lies across an attractive little square from where I am sleeping tonight before a packed day of meetings tomorrow.
