Bienvenue à Paris

So we have made it to Paris (we're in a neighborhood called Antony staying with family friends and daughters). So far we've only seen Paris by plane, train, and bus (not a fair sample). I must say that we impressed ourselves by navigating the airport and tram system, buying train tickets, catching the train, and getting off at the correct place with a language barrier (obviously minimal questions were asked). Today we hope Angela's lovely daughters will be able to show us around a bit. A couple of notes so far: 1) the French computer keyboard is completely different (so it's taking me a very long time to type and forget about spell check) 2)Although we had less than a 10 min rain shower, once we started to get cleaned up for the day, the sun came back out. It's further proof that we are bringing the sun! We're not sure what today's plans include...love that. Tonight we are probably going to an English trivia-game dinner. I'm not convinced M and I will rock that as much as we should.

Hope everyone is doing very well. I'll/we'll be posting once we know more and have seen more. Another note: because of the speed difference with typing (and the fact that the girls have to go to school early), I may not be able to respond to individual emails for awhile. Have no fear, our adventure continues and we will try to keep you all updated.
