Day one: London-Paris I met Tricia, my friend from Florida, in London-Gatwick airport around noon. We grabbed some sandwiches at M & S Simply food (I Love their sandwiches and wish they had them here in the US) to take on the train ride to Paris via the Chunnel.

Living Through You!
Nt travels or somewhat these days so I enjoying see your blog. It is hard to get a good picture of some things like Notre Dame. You just can not capture that in the lens it seems. At least I was never comfortable with my pics of it. I did not see the cemetery when I was there. It looks interesting. Did you enjoy the Louvre. I just went to the 3 big things and then went and saw the Dutch painters work. How long did you spend in the Louvre? Best wishes and keep the bogs coming!
