Sunday morning to find our train at a standstill & the church bells were ringing. I looked out & saw the most magnificent scenery I ever saw in my life. The next station we called at was Montfavet which has an assembly platform almost as big as Sydney Central. From there we went through the most beautiful scenery I have ever seen in my life. We went through miles & miles of vineyards & cherry orchards & farms & we began to think it was never going to stop. Everything seemed perfect, the roads formed like Billiard tables & beautiful hedges lined the roads. Now & then we would come across an old Castle of the Napoleonic times. We went through France at the best time of the year when everything was at its best Springtime. The railway stations were beautiful gardens on their own
