Paris in the Springtime

I've been so busy with writing and reviewing a literary contract since I returned from Paris in Mid June that I haven't had a chance to say how wonderful the trip turned out. Great weather and, believe me, we needed it, especially on the day we climbed half-way up the Eiffel Tower! The line for the tram was about 2000+ people long, so we went for the only entrance where no one was on line--the stairs. So what? It was tiring, but the views were gorgeous!! Took the Bateau Mouches for at least the third time over the years. Always relaxing and with the views of both the right and left back, no complaints here. Finally made it to Sacre Cour. Again, like a million steps (okay, only about 75) but it's way up on hill on the left bank and, again, the views were fantastic.

Spent 3 days in Bordeaux--goreous. What else would the wine country of France be if not that? Great Inn, food, wine, wine tours, wine--of, I said that already. All in all, a grand experience and a trip to remember.
