No snow here, just a lot of activity as we prepare for our next trip. We leave for Paris tomorrow evening, arriving on Wednesday morning. After we check into our hotel at the airport, we'll wait for my friend Anne to arrive on the TGV, with her children and mine in tow. Then once they're checked in (to the same hotel), we'll all take the RER into Paris proper for a quick "Paris By Night."
I don't know what we plan to see in Paris, but we'll get dinner at the very least, then head back to the hotel. The next morning, Anne and her kids will fly to the States, and Allan, my kids and I take off for Glasgow for a visit with Amber and Len.
You have no idea how much I'm looking forward to this.





Have a wonderful time!

If you need a restaurant to go to, I recommend Le Relais de Venice! Amazingly good. I just had to share.

If you get a chance, and the weather is not too cold, take the train from Glasgow to Gourock, then hop on the quick ferry over to Dunoon.
Take the bus up the road over to Benmore Botanical Gardens. It is an extraordinary site!
