Scotland to Wengen
From Scotland to Kings Cross, then a step across the road,
So neatly to Sty Pancras and the Eurostar is there.
Emerging from the chunnel and a gallic voice holds forth:
Now we are in France. Now we can travel in this train at the speed it is designed for..
From Gare du Nord a taxi, pour visiter des vieux amis,
And the morning after to the Gare de Lyon to continue.
At that stage an unexpected upgrade
To a very comfortable seat in "First Business"
Quick change again at Basle, just crossing the platform
And trundllng on through Switzerland , to the magnificent Berner Oberland.
Finally into the hills and up to Wengen.
