Engaged?! Hey Andrea, Your title was a bit misleading...thought you might have gotten engaged in Paris. Didn't know who was gonna be coming home with you. Paris sounds incredible (pronounce that with a french accent, it sounds much better). Can't wait to see you and all your pictures. Love ya, Mom
I agree...Paris is the most wonderful place...and yes those guys at sacre coeur are SO annoying. How was Garber?
Hope the last few days of your trip is good! Say hi to Good Ol' England for me!
Ma Belle Bonjour Ma Belle. How's everything in the Belle Country? So, you're spending time talking to yourself in francais?? Wonder where you got that quirky habit from?? Have you decided how you are getting to London? Enjoy your last few days. We're anxiously awaiting your return to Canada. Love, Mom
Hi andrea! I've been following along on your adventures, It sounds like you're really having a great time- fun, culture everything all mixed together-totally wish I were there. I'll call you guys back in london when you are back home. But hope you are feeling totally well now and that your last days are awesome! luv Beks
bonjour amie! if you get the chance, take a bus trip to Versailles. Beautiful castle, one of my favourites. And be sure to try out a Croque Monsieur - like a grilled ham and cheese sandwhich. Try not to spend too many Euros on the Champs Elysees!! I know you're flying in on the 28th, but when are you back in London (Ontario....!) ?? Amusez-vous bien!!!
Paris is Great Hey if you have time you should try to go on the boat cruise at night. It is really pretty to see everything lit up, and when I went there were dances and performers on the sides of water. Just a suggestion. I am sure you have lots that you want to see.
I am glad you are having fun.
Wow, Verona sounds amazing! You've discovered a lot of awesome museums on your travels. Can't wait for the photos. Enjoy your last nite in Italy...Paris should be lots of fun. Watch out for crazy guys parachuting off the Eiffel Tower (some guy actually did this last week. it was on the news). Love ya lots, Mom
It's about time. Seeing as how you are coming home very soon, I thought I should finally send you a comment. I have been reading your blogs and it all sounds incredible. And yes, I am very jealous of your tan (I am finding it difficult to get a good tan at the library.lol). Enjoy every minute you have left in your journey, because once your back in Canada, you will wish you were still there. Also, have you been doing much reading? You said there would be many books at the different hostels, any good ones? Anyway, take care I will see you very soon. Jayna
Pics? Hi Andrea, Glad you're feeling better. Can't find your pics online...where do I go? If you get a chance, you should try to visit Turino...where the Olympics were. You might get some inside info or some contacts. Ya never know. Love ya, Mom
Is sounds like alot of fun Hey hun. It sounds amazing and like you are having alot of fun. Ios sounds like a place for you and me for sure. I'll consider in the offer of going back with you but no promises. I can not wait to see all of your pictures.
Move?! Okay, okay Andrea, you've convinced me...let's move to Ios. or any other Greek exotic island that you find. Sounds perfect. What an incredible journey. Lots of love, Mom
Stayin'? Hey Andrea, My friend was just telling me that years ago a friend of hers went to Greece for 2 weeks and stayed...for 2 months. I was wondering if you are planning the same thing...did you find a villa for us? Let me know if I should book my flight. Love, Mom
Way to go!! Hey Andrea!
I've been reading along with you at work but don't get to comment much....because i'm at work. lol. It sounds like you're having an awesome time. And way to go for doing it on your own! I'm proud of you! Be safE!
I KNOW!! The movie's name is Pariscope Down. VERY funny. Sounds so beautiful hun. I love reading your logs...I can almost see what you're describing. Be safe!
Cruizin' Ahh Andrea, the best way to see the Greek islands is on a cruise ship/ er...ferry. It's the poor person's cruise. Just think about all those rich people paying mega bucks to cruise all the islands that you just went to! You certainly are getting lots accomplished. I've read that Greek men are very complimentary...remember the movie "Shirley Valentine"!Lots of love, Mom
Greek Souvenirs Hey Andrea, How's the sunset in Santorini? Did you go to Ancient Thira? I read that if you're interested in jewelry, Athens is the best place to shop...maybe Les can help you with this one. The other things recommended are leather goods, copies of ancient and Byzantine Greek art. The other things are hard to carry, such as pottery and rugs from sheep or goat's wool. Just some info for you from my travel book. I'm following your adventures from my armchair/computer. Love ya, Mom
