okay so right now we're at
north which is the train station to get
onto eurostar because we're going from
paris to london today
um we're actually here pretty early our
train time is at 4 13
um and we're here at one
uh it's not three hours yeah we got
three hours but it's a beautiful station
i mean from the outside it looks
gorgeous it looks huge so if i try to
find something to eat just kind of see
where our platform is and all that and
explore the place a little yeah
[Music]
i don't even think
[Music]
so this is paul's here we've seen this
in paris when we were in the city
and
everybody is walking around with
sandwiches and their croissants and it
looked really good we saw this ham and
cheese it's pretty classic in france to
have that i guess or in paris
but they also have like this chicken
sandwich that candy so that looks good
and also
lots of yummy pastries
okay so i ended up getting the ham and
cheese which they called lemix which
means mix
and
the quality is really good on the ham
and cheese and the bread too and then
candy got the grilled chee or a grilled
chicken
sandwich
that has tomato and lettuce the chicken
is very moist it's not dry at all oh
okay
nice
so this is called the city
it's on the lower level
of the train station and they have
all sorts of chips and stuff that you
can get
and like beer drinks all sorts of
sandwiches
snacks
so yeah you need to get some snacks you
can stop by here
these cookies
five euros
some coffee
arizona iced tea
[Music]
we browse around the train station a
little bit before entering the eurostar
area because i guess it's like a
different area like you have to go
through the passport and security check
and all that
and we couldn't even go in until a
certain time anyway so we got around
there a little bit there's like a few
eateries down there most of the people
were going to paul which is the bakery
and dessert place we were on
floor zero
and then minus one all the bathrooms are
downstairs which this bathroom you do
have to pay yeah so
if you're leaving make sure you have a
coin because you need a coin to use the
bathroom we didn't have any coins
um but one euro yes one euro this is the
first time we ran into a situation where
we needed money to use the bathroom so
basically we were like okay we'll just
wait to go to the bathroom when we go to
the eurostar section so there is a wait
because it took us about i want to say
15 20 minutes to get through
security checkpoint they know they check
your bags check your passport and then
once you get into that eurostar section
after all that then there's free
bathrooms so
you don't have any money that's an
option um to use the bathrooms in here
once you get to security um it's a
if you're in the normal
economy class the line was pretty long
so i would say get here
at least an hour and a half before your
departing time if you want to give
yourself some chill time
because it i would say they're probably
taking at least 30 to 40 minutes in that
line whereas our line we don't have
business class we're like in between a
business it was like something premiere
what is it for a standard so the guy
actually let us go to business
lane he was nice about it and so that
because he let us do that we did cut our
time probably in half but even then it
was still kind of long i was a little
bit surprised i never realized how many
people are gonna you have to go through
like three different sections yeah so
first is you scan your passport and you
take a picture did you take a picture in
the first one yeah so you take a picture
yeah so you do that first after that
checkpoint then you come to a person and
she's checking your passport the stamp
like to make sure you know you have a
stamp coming in but then after that you
have to do that process again which is
kind of strange i don't understand why
you have to do this but you have to scan
your passport once again take another
picture
maybe that side is for the england side
maybe maybe yeah maybe maybe one side of
paris the other side of england but uh
so anyway you have to do this twice and
then after that you have to put your
luggage through security yeah and i
almost freaked out because i have like
six bottles of water in my suitcase
because we over bought water we didn't
want to waste it i'm like oh man i have
to take it out but no you don't have to
here yeah so if you have water you can
bring it through no problem
because i was i did not want to deal
with opening up my suitcase and like
taking all the water anyways so once
that was done um we walked in
and it was just like a crowd of people
it was a little bit like whoa what's
going on
very chaotic it's very chaotic and then
once you pass that
um like where we're sitting
relaxing nice cool air conditioning
there's food over here hall again yeah
our favorite yeah so yeah now we're just
chilling and waiting for our our ride
yeah so i guess
why it was so chaotic before when we
entered was because a trains gate just
had opened so there was a 3
13 train that was leaving and ours is 4
13. so they opened the gate 20 to 30
minutes before the departure time
so as they were passing by that's when
they just opened the gate so everybody
was trying to go through at once but
once it's open it stays open until the
departure time so you don't have to rush
to get into it but i think a lot of
people were was because they have
luggage so they're trying to get a good
spot for the luggage so that's the only
reason why people are like trying to
like cram in there like at once but if
you don't have to worry about luggage
like you can just go in there last
minute if you want yeah i don't care
like yep just right here i think we're
gonna have to worry about it because we
have a large we have a lot of luggage
yeah but yeah they have a lot of
eateries up here too they have the fall
like candy mentioned they have duty-free
once you walk in and
all the way down at the end is the
i think the business
or coach 1-10 area sitting area so that
area was more spacious and they had
outlets and stuff but they also have
another little kind of like little
market where they have fresh fruits and
sandwiches and stuff there too so more
options up here plus free toilets so
you can wait to hold your you know
bathroom break wait till you pass wait
till you come up here yes you have to
pay and it's actually it looks it's
probably nicer up here too i don't know
seems more
yeah relaxed and clean and ac you know
it's clean down there too it's just more
relaxed yeah
[Music]
i know i can't believe i'm holding this
with one hand look how strong i am
all right so these are our seats right
here
pretty nice we're gonna sit across
so i think we're going this way right
we'll go figure out which way we're
going and then
if it's going this way
then you'll be fine ladies and gentlemen
once again good afternoon everybody and
welcome onboard these eurostar
okay here is where our luggage is
right over here
not much luggage space here but
there's crystal sitting over there but
there is space to put smaller luggage up
above your seat here so
okay
so if i go to the bathroom
these doors automatically open
so the bathroom is right here
just have to push this green button to
open it
good it's nice and spacious
[Music]
another green here to close it
make sure to lock it now it's red
so yeah plenty of room in here so if you
want to bring your luggage in here
because for whatever reason you don't
want to leave it out there but if you're
by yourself there's plenty of room to
bring your luggage in here but
yeah so there's the bathroom
this train is very wobbly
open
close
okay okay this way
this just automatically opens for you
looks nice
open yes
so i got lots one outlaws i got two
desserts at all
i really love
their
wand
it's like a cheesecake
so
looks so good
got one of those
and this is like called the almondy or
something but it looks like an almond
tart looks really cute
i think we're supposed to get a meal
on this
uh journey
because we paid for the standard
premiere this is included with the meal
it's a very very fast train
they're saying like they have like top
speeds on this train
so far it's been very comfortable
it's very quiet oh something's coming
down actually oh they're coming down
with the car
theme
like a drink car like an airplane
this is very quiet
and
soothing
and then we're supposed to go underwater
soon like in a tunnel so that's going to
be exciting
uh they're saying like they have these
monitors up here and it tells you like
all these different tidbits on like how
fast the train is how deep underwater
you go and stuff so
kind of excited about that
[Music]
all right so we got our food and um i
got the roast beef with
some other stuff
i don't know what this other thing is
it looks all right
um
it also comes with like wine and beer
but we both didn't feel like drinking
that and candy got apple juice actually
i'm just okay with water
and then it comes with a little dessert
uh i don't know what that is oh i'm on
dude i just had that
i have a roll of bread with butter
um they even give you an antibacterial
tower we'll tell which is nice what i
didn't get one of those
where's mine
really it must have like fell off or
something
well sorry about that she was too
focused on me not remembering yeah um
because candy cut the non-dairy or yeah
non-dairy right meal yeah non-dairy meal
i was just afraid they're gonna give me
a lot of cheese because we're in france
yeah um but
i don't even know what this is actually
it looks like salmon
salmon potatoes broccoli
pineapple i think i believe
interesting like they put like salt
peppers maybe because there's milk in
there i couldn't have that yeah it does
look like there's salt pepper on that
and then yeah i got orange juice apple
bread yeah or apple juice yeah
um i probably won't drink this i just
want to take it back to the hotel
we're really actually not that hungry we
ate before yeah because we assumed it's
probably going to be like airplane food
and i'm glad i ate because i don't think
i can eat that yeah i mean i'm probably
just going to eat a little bit of this
not too much
but you know this is what you get we
just wanted to see what's going to see
you could get at a standard premiere
seat yeah
[Music]
all right so we've made it to london
uh it was a great train ride i actually
passed out for a little bit because it
felt so good the food like you know it
was okay um
not like what i would usually order but
i wish i was just warmer because like
it's all ice cold almost like i touched
the bread it was like rock hard
overall the train ride was like really
smooth and fast um
you know it only went underground for
like a little bit because most of the
time it was above ground and yeah it
wasn't cold or too long
i was like
i think like right before we went under
i fell asleep it was dark anyway i
couldn't see anything so
the wi-fi sucked i mean
it connected great when we're like
waiting at the platform but once it took
off like it was
so slow but if you want to like send
messages it's fine but if you want to do
any uploading or watching videos like
it's not it won't work for that
yeah but i've experienced that on all
the trains um it doesn't even matter if
the train has wi-fi itself if you're
trying to use your cell phone wi-fi if
you're trying to use your wi-fi hot
device like nothing really works i think
it's just the route you're on when
you're riding trains they just don't
include enough like you know towers so
you can get on but i mean at least you
could still check your messages and
stuff if you needed to so that was
doable but um yeah overall like
it was a really comfortable ride yeah i
loved it i absolutely loved it
um so yeah i hope this review helped you
