Transport hub grub A delayed journey means unscheduled refuelling stops for passengers. If you've been affected by the recent travel disruption what have you been eating in transit?Since the eruption of one of the world's hardest to pronounce volcanoes inflicted the most monumental travel chaos in recent memory, hundreds of thousands of people have found themselves in unexpected eating scenarios and culinary conundrums, and as they continue to drift home these tardy travellers are telling their tales.For a fortunate minority, the delays have meant welcome extra time to enjoy different local cuisines – since my flight got cancelled last week I've eaten plates of belly pork with crispy skin that would give Felicity Cloake's perfect pork crackling a run for its money, and tasted the unique flavour of river fish fresh rolls on the Mekong delta. But for others - stranded in airports whose halogen-lit hotplates belie their countries' rich cuisine, or stuck in holiday destinations where the exotic food has suddenly lost its sparkle - really just longing for a pork pie or a pizza, it will have meant something less inviting. If you've found yourself with some extra unplanned mealtimes in unfamiliar surroundings, which side of the divide have you found yourself on?I am one such nomad, which is why I find myself in Hong Kong airport, now en route to Paris (and then on to London via Eurostar a mere six days later than planned), sinking my teeth into a char siu bun and burning my mouth on some Shanghainese noodles. It's not a bad experience – the bun is fluffy and light and filled with that irresistible sweet salty pork, and the noodles are fine. But then, this is Hong Kong – where even airport food is verging on delicious – and I'm one of the lucky ones. I know that some of my fellow strandees will n 遅延の旅は、乗客のためにストップを給油外を意味します
Why I love the Louvre's Grande Galerie Take a stroll through the Louvre's awe-inspiring Grande Galerie and its magnificent history paintings will make you rethink artThere are many places on Earth where art lovers feel they have to go. Cairo to see the face of King Tut, maybe, or New York's MoMa to see Les Demoiselles d'Avignon. I have no regrets about my pilgrimages to such sites. But I have to confess that the place that makes me more aware than any other of the richness, glory and mystery of art is closer to home (just a Eurostar journey away), and far more complex in its pleasures.In the Grande Galerie of the Louvre you walk along an immense hall – divided in two by a central tribune – past a cavalcade of French history paintings. What is a history painting? Well, the best way to find out is to visit this part of France's national museum. Here are paintings, many of them on a staggering scale, of great and noble, shocking and terrifying events. Survivors of a shipwreck lose their last shreds of hope as gargantuan waves bear down on their loosely slung together vessel in 。éricault's The Raft of the Medusa. Napoleon gives succour to the dying in Baron Gros's Battlefield of Eylau. As the heroic Spartans prepare to lay down their lives, their leader sits brooding alone, staring right at us, in David's great Leonidas at Thermopylae.If you think this display of French 18th- and early 19th-century masterpieces is all about blood and guts, there's sex here, too, in Delacroix's Women of Algiers and Ingres's Odalisque. In fact, there are so many surprises and puzzles among these sometimes strange, always magnificent works that you could rethink the entire nature of art on a stroll through this awe-inspiring space.The grand paintings it holds were made mostly for the Salon, the French exhibition of new art that was _NULL_
Eurostar Criticized for Winter Breakdowns A review into the troubles that halted Eurostar traffic for several days in December found the company and the tunnel operator were unprepared for winter weather. その数日間、12月のユーロスターのトラフィックを停止し、トラブルに見ると、トンネルの演算子の冬の天候のための準備ができていた会社が見つかりました
