Bonjour Marseille

For many first time visitors to Marseille the first thing they see is the Gare St. Charles (Train Station St. Charles). Almost twenty years ago I arrived at this station on an overnight train from Paris.
Now this journey can be made in a little over three hours on the fast TGV train. Approximately 800Kms (500 miles) you are whisked along at 266kms per hour (166 miles per hour). Way to go!!
