Hello from Paris



At last we are on French soil and so the holiday really begins. Today's lesson - if possible, avoid London's Victoria Station during peak times especially if you are handicapped with 20 kilos or so of luggage. Going against the 'traffic' didn't help, but to be honest it wasn't much better going with the flow. Quite terrifying for the uninitiated. The Eurostar was uneventful and efficient, but again, the summer crowds are something else.

We have found our French apartment to be everything it promised to be on the internet site. It is modern but has a lovely French feel. We are now off to fill the cupboards with some yummy produce and at last Bill can try his French out. Tomorrow we hope to sample some fine French cuisine as we venture to " la Fontiane Gaillon", a restaurant owned by Gerard Depardieu.
