Rewind to England

Forgive me, I’m lagging on uploading photos. I’m behind by a few days. I just uploaded some photos of Sunday’s tour to Windsor Castle, Bath, and Stonhenge. We’re just finished with day 2 of 5 in Paris, which is quite an experience. Just to mention one site we saw today… Notre Dame was breathtaking. I think Monique took 100 pictures in there! We did a lot of walking today all around the city, which was great, but haven’t really gone out of the heart of Paris yet. Tomorrow is either Versailles or more Paris. We’ll decide based on weather in the morning. It’s really been iffy. Half the day has been beautiful then it rains in the afternoon, then it clears up again for the night. The winds are cold when they blow though, and that’s not all that fun for this California couple. We’re pretty tired from all this hard vacationing work, and we’re starting to feel a little homesick. But we’ve got a lot of great stuff to see yet, so we’ll be back out there again tomorrow.
We’ve Crossed Over

Have you ever been in a Taxi in Paris? Holy Crap! We got cut off at least 4 times, cut someone else off a bunch, stopped so the cab drive could yell at someone who he felt didn’t have the right of way, and sped through town to our little hotel (view from our itty bitty balcony is above) I’ve seen all of those maneuvers in LA before, but not all in one trip!
We’re in our hotel and it’s lightly raining. It was nice when we got here, but we are lazily getting going. The plan was a river cruise tonight, we’ll see if we make it over there. There’s dinner in the works somewhere cuz I’m hungry and I’ve heard a lot about this French food, so bring it on. Monique’s sleeping right now and I’ll let her nap a bit before we head out.
I’m still uploading London photos, uploading Saturday’s photos now, and will upload Sunday’s photos (our bus tour to Windsor Castle, Bath, and Stonehenge - complete with crazy streaker girl) later.
We read through some of the comments on the photos on flickr today and laughed out loud. Thanks for those!
