                    <title>Where the wind takes us ... </title>
                    <description>I am truly at a loss for this trip to actually write down and say what my mom and I have both done during the day. We went into it with nothing truly planned and to use my mom39s common phrase ... we just went where the wind took us. I am normally much more verbose about my trips but like I have said before we have just relaxed during our time in Paris. For me I39ve have had the chance to j</description>

                    <title>And the wandering continues ... </title>
                    <description>As I mentioned in a previous post I was well overdue for a vacation. Both mom and I have certainly been taking full advantage of being away and have been getting some much need rest and relaxation. We have been and very uncharacteristically so ... sleeping in later than usual and we have enjoyed watching French movies as we wind down the day.Having travelled many times with my mom we both just</description>

                    <title>Eating my way through Paris</title>
                    <description>Our morning started again with a cafe creme at the Bistro Dupleix. Could we be becoming regularsWe then walked underneath the bridge that links the Dupleix and La MottePiquet Grenelle metro stations. Every few days there seems to be a market that installs itself there and this morning was one of those days. It was one of those typical markets that have the farmers with their incredibly beautifu</description>

                    <title>Aimlessness in Paris</title>
                    <description>First of all let me just say that I have never slept so well in a long time. My head hits the pillow and I am gone until the very next morning. I definitely needed the vacation and had been looking to the break for a while now. Paris is doing me some good.Today was one of those days with no real purpose. Just some aimless walking around in Paris. Although there are definitely things that need to </description>

                    <title>Rainy and Cold at the Cemetery</title>
                    <description>Today the weather was a little bit colder than the last couple of days and it varied between sunny to rainy. That did not however dampen our efforts to continue our visit of Paris.We started by heading to the Trocadero to once again see the Eiffel Tower and see if the line to climb was reasonable early in the morning. It had been quite short the afternoon of the day we arrived but I think that eve</description>

                    <title>Sunny Day in Montmartre ... </title>
                    <description>After an early bed time and a late rising which means we went to bed at 9 pm and we woke up at 935 am we were definitely rid of jet lag. We took our time getting ready and then slowly headed out to grab the subway. We made a wrong turn and ended up discovering the streets around the hotel.Our first stop would be the Charles de Gaulle  Etoile subway stop to go see the Arc de Triomphe. Having</description>

                    <title>Mother and Daughter in Paris</title>
                    <description>Two years ago to the day I was getting on a plane to realize a dream of taking a leave of absence from work and travelling for an extended period. That trip started in Paris and ended in Paris and it took me through France Italy Spain and Portugal. It was therefore ironic that I ended up on that exact same flight to realize something that I had wanted to do for a long time ... have my mom trave</description>

                    <description>Who needs to pack an alarm clock when you can lovingly get woken up by the cockledoodle doo of a rooster at a little before 5 am Yes this resort comes with its very own rooster and I would later find out that the streets around my hotel are actually overrun by them. There are also a variety of cacawlike sounds early in the morning but the source has yet to be identified. And I did fall </description>

                    <title>Arrival into Cambodia</title>
                    <description>I have just settled into my room in Siem Reap after a long journey to get here. It is around 1130 pm and I am quite tired from the last day and a half of travelling just to get here. The good news is that I should be able to get a relatively good night sleep relatively early start and I anticipate not feeling the effects of the time change too much similarly to Bangkok last year. Considering th</description>

                    <title>Another Day Another Train Another City</title>
                    <description>Today is my last full day in Madrid and so I knew that I had to pack quite a lot in to make sure that I had seen everything I had my heart set on. I think that with any trip you plan those absolute must see things and also a few would have been nice to see but I ran out of time. In my case there are a few of the latter but all in all I am quite happy with the amount of sights that I have been</description>

                    <title>Another Day Another Pueblo</title>
                    <description>The first thing that I want to say is ... OUCH I39m not saying this to be lamented really because there are worse things that could be happening to me at this very moment. But can I just say that my calves are so freakishly sore from the incessant hill climbing of Toledo yesterday. My day started out feeling a little indecisive and therefore could not really make up my mind as to what I really</description>

I think that it is one of those words that have a few meanings depending on how you use it in a sentence.I made my early to the Atocha Renfe Train Station. The subway route that I would normally would have taken had parts of lines under construction so I had to take a pretty long way out to get there. Now I know what rush hour on the Circular looks like ... </description>

                    <title>All of That Without a Siesta</title>
                    <description>Yesterday felt like a really slow day. The jet lag and lack of sleep hit me when I was going through the Museo del Traje. I went to bed early and had a relatively good night sleep. I wanted to cram as much into today to compensate for the fact that I had not gotten as much done yesterday. Mission accomplishedI left the hotel at around 830 am and right now it is about 800 pm and I just got back </description>

                    <description>So I have made it safe and sound to bella Madrid. It was a relatively uneventful flight. My one concern was that I had a short connection and I wanted to make sure that I would be checked in all the way through so that I wouldn39t have to try and find a transfer desk with only a little over an hour for a connection. The plane was late in leaving so if you have never seen Caroline run through an</description>

                    <description>As I mentioned in my previous entry mom and I were staying at the Auberge Pomerol. The rooms were lovely and what made it even more unique was the fact that our day started with a continental breakfast brought to our door in a small wicker picnic basket. The basket had croissants muffins jams yogurt fruit juice and teas and then we had a coffee maker in the room for the obligatory morning cu</description>

                    <title>A MultiCultural Day in Montreal</title>
                    <description>This is a weekend that had been planned for a little while in part as a birthday gift for my mom. I say planned but by that I mean that the train tickets were bought and the hotel reserved but not much planning was done in terms of what specifically we would be doing and such. Mom and I had a general idea of what we wanted to do and I had bought a guidebook so that we would have some maps and gen</description>

                    <description>Today was my departure day from Bangkok and I am on my way home I miss my big baby girl Charlotte. This was a wonderful trip and I am sad that it had to end but at the same time I am feeling quite fortunate to have had the experience. I honestly have nothing to say that is negative about this trip and I have fallen in love with Thailand it may rival my love for Cuba if that tells you anything</description>

                    <description>I bought the best book yesterday. It is called Very Thai and it is small essays on all of the things that make up Thai culture. There are quite a few things that I have seen and definitely asked myself about as they seem to be distinctly Thai and this book covers all of them such as why some men have long fingernails the popularity of foodstalls especially food on a stick I have had quite </description>

                    <description>Today was my last full day in Thailand and I was spending it at The Thai House. It is located just up the Chao Phraya River in Nonthaburi. I was getting picked up at the hotel to be brought to one of the piers to continue the journey by boat. My pickup was late actually the man who picked me up was a friend of the guy who was supposed to pick me up that39s how stuck in traffic this guy was a</description>
