We got back from Paris safely and am now reacclimatized to our time zone. It takes a while to get back to normal--probably longer than when we were young. The trip was great. We were in Paris for 8 days (10 days including travel). We stayed in a very nice hotel close to the Eiffel Tower. We saw many of the sites and had some great meals. The weather was cool and intermittently drizzly. People were very kind and forgiving. Our only French was Bonjour and Bonsoir Madame or Monsieur but everyone was helpful. I have a bunch of pictures but haven't gotten around to looking through them yet. We will be home until early June when we need to go to New Jersey for a few days to celebrate the retirement of a friend and then we will be back here. On about June 10 we will fly out to Carlsbad.
The fires in SD county, specifically the Carlsbad area are frightening. Our condo has escaped the flames so far, but they have been close--probably within a half mile. I hear that now the fire has moved east to San Marcos and Escondido and there is another one in Oceanside. Craig has been keeping me up to date. It looks like it will be a bad fire season this year.
