Ah, Paris! We arrived here about 7 am local time. Yes, we said we were starting this trip in London for five days, followed by a week in Scotland and nine days in Ireland. But today is the fifteenth anniversary of our first date so where better to celebrate it than the Charles de Gaulle Airport outside of Paris?
The truth is that our flight to London was flat out cancelled and they routed us through Paris. And aren’t those smart phones great. You get to find out your next flight is cancelled before the arriving flight’s wheels stop turning. We are scheduled to arrive at Heathrow Airport outside of London only about five hours late. As for our luggage, who knows. As of now, United has no idea where it is.
These pictures are merely to show that we are in Paris. Hopefully the next update will be from London.
For just a second there I was thinking, “Oh, you old romantic!” but then I read on–what a perfect beginning to Jack and Konnie’s 2011 Great Adventure! Keep making lemonade when the lemons come your way. Hmmm…I’m envisioning Konnie with a beautiful new British wardrobe when her bags aren’t found for days!
Crazy!! Make sure you have enough cash in your pocket. Those Euro banks are looking a bit shaky right now!!! Enjoy!
