So, that leaves out the old folks who are out of shape! Even if the others are not your favorite folks, rememer EUROPE...NO WORK....couldn't get much better. Except, of course, if all of us were with you too!!! Love your blogs and thanks so much for writing to each one of us. From what I read about the tour, there is a fair amount of walking.

We knew we'd be tired, but, well, there isn't really any way to prepare for this. I'm guessing it is kind of what it is like having kids! We join our tour in 22 hours! We're excited, but a bit apprehensive about the group, we're really curious who the other 20 people will be and what they'll be like!!! Going on vacation with people is always a risk...here goes! Beer, bread, cheese x deux...DONE! Hi! We knew we’d be tired, but, well, there isn’t really any way to prepare for this. I’m guessing it is kind of what it is like having kids!

The weather has been fantastic! We really couldn't have asked for anything better! Yes, the history in these places is amazing, makes us realize how young we are in America! Hi Auntie!

No, every food day can't be an awesome one, but between the Boxwood Cafe in London and our first dinner in Paris, if we don't have another edible meal the rest of this trip, I'll be okay with that...those two were amazing enough to sustain me a month!!! The weather is BEAUTIFUL! It really is amazing that we've fallen into this weather. Today was 72* and sunny, PERFECT! Versailles was beautiful as well, though I never imagined it would be so enormous! We thought we walked a lot yesterday, pfft. We've been on our feet, walking, alllllllllllllllllllll day today, almost 7 hours straight! We figure, the human race takes us 2 hours, and that is six miles; granted our pace isn't quite as fast here, but still, that is a heck of a lot of walking! Glad you're still reading and enjoying the blogs! Love you both and miss you! xoxo Hi.

I've heard that about Europe, but you are truely experiencing it. When do you join a tour? Love the pictures! I usually read, then look a the pictures....but sometimes, just sneak a pick at the pictures, they are great. Have a loaf of bread and hunk of cheese for me, and a beer for Darren...heck, I'll take a beer too!!! Happy travels! -shelly Did yo have any idea how exhausted you’d be?

I am sure Versailles will be everything and more than you expect. Is the weather chilly there? I see you both are in coats and Nicole is wearing a scarf?

Are you still having good weather? Maybe when you get into the tour group not speaking French won't be so much of a disadvantage. VERSAILLES from all I have heard is wonderful, can't wait to hear about it. Keep writing and we will keep reading. Love, Mom and Dad Hi there, Well everyday can’t be a good food day.
