Eurostar travellers struggle to find alternative routes after flooding cancels trains

I was meant to for getting the 9:31 Euro star to get to Paris explore Paris today and then Disneyland party tomorrow and when did you realize it was all it was all gone wrong wow so we woke up this morning and we saw that the first three
