"Acces Interdit"

#5957, Paris-Lyon>Clermont-Ferrand

i came across a french teacher in berlin in 2004. when i asked where he lived, he hesitated and said, "mm... it's in central france, famous among the french people,but not well-known internationally, it's famous of it's volcanoes, of course it's sleeping, haha..." i looked through the touring books, only clermont-ferrand fit his description, so i went there today.

out of expection, the tiny city is quite beautiful. it's sunday and the streets were deadly quiet, so i could take many photo there. and of course, i couldn't meet him la, although i've tried my best to let it happen, haha...

　　因為只顧著在公園看"The Lord of the Rings"，錯過了不用訂位的回程火車，在火車站乾等接近兩個小時

1837　Clermont-Ferrand Voie H

　　趁空檔預訂6/6、7/6的票，職員一邊數手指一邊唸"one, two, three……"可惜我只懂說"merci"，再高一級，我怕我只能說"danke schön"或"vielen dank"，在法國，看見德文或聽見德語已倍覺親切（英文則別奢望了）。

回程一段的感覺很討厭，除了中途有一小童坐了一段外，其餘時間車廂只有自己一人。過了Nevers後，我甚至拉了窗簾關上燈，充當硬臥，連驗票也沒有。感受當日在直通車睡覺時那種離心力。到最後結果是凍醒了，天終於全黑。不安的感覺到了地鐵站才開始消失。原來一樣擁擠，甚至比平時更甚。巴黎就是品流複雜，但我終於明白「複雜」不等於「罪案」，在這裡各有各精彩，但不會具侵略性。明就是明了，但仍未適應是事實。
