Wow what a journey
It must be good to be home and to have all those great memories and an opportunity to plan the next trip. Have you got the atlas out yet? Thanks for taking us on your journey and look forward to the next

What a trip
So glad you had such a great trip but (selfishly) sad that it has ended since I look so forward to your blog entries. We have a lot of little trips (TX, FL,CA) planned in the next few months to visit family. Not sure where our next internat'l trip will be,,,,, we have plans for the Balkans in the Spring, maybe Iceland in the late summer......we'll see. I'm sure you are happy to be home after two months of travel but will undoubtedly all ready be planning you next trip.

What a trip
I'm sure we will find something to blog about later this summer but no international travel for us for now. We will enjoy our condo as much as we can. I'm eager to hear about the Balkins. We loved, loved, loved Iceland....consider Greenland also. Chat soon.

Memories
Reading this I remembered staying at a little hotel outside Interlaken with my late husband and getting up about 5 am to see the most wonderful sunset ...thanks for that memory. Grindlwald, Lauterbrunnen .. It's all just soooo beautiful.

Snow galore
What an amazing train ride... I must do it one day. I am a bit late catching up with this leg of your journey ... And also sorry that I didn't make it to London to meet with you. Fabulous photos and commentary as always. And what a variety of landscapes you have encountered this trip.

We completely understand not being able to meet up with you. Our paths will cross again soon. It was an amazing train ride and so glad we did it in the winter. The world was flocked in white. It was perfect.

Frog crossing
We have those signs in UK in some places ... It is usually a place where frogs cross from pond to pond especially mating seasons etc

Frog crossing
Thank you for letting me know. We were puzzled by the signs. It never occurred to me that a frog would travel that kind of distance. The things we do for mating. Smile.

Happy anniversary
Paris eludes me... I have yet to hear anything to stop me from going. Nice blog, I like the small adventures within the larger adventure. Sitting at a cafe and chatting is one of the biggest parts of anyone's travels. And by the way - those chocolates do look nice - did you do this to tease readers?

Anniversary wishes
Thanks for the well wishes. No the photos of the chocolates are not to tease....they are art! I do hope you will find time for Paris as it is an amazing city. Each and every neighborhood has a completely different vibe and all are charming. It could take a lifetime to work your way through it. This trip was about connecting and re-connecting so there was a lot of time in cafes and talking about life, politics and travel. Everyone seems to want to discuss the upcoming elections in the U.S.

Proper flaneurs!
This wonderful French word must have been coined in Paris--the perfect city for sauntering about, and it sounds as if you were proper flaneurs. And what a romantic (and tasty) city to celebrate your anniversary! My first time there, I had an apartment for a month. Then, whenever I'd fly to Europe, I'd land in Paris, planning to stay only a couple of days which always stretched to a few weeks. As you said, one could never tire of the beautiful city.

Proper flaneurs
Never, never tire of the French life. I can see how it could stretch from a few days to a few weeks if you had the time.

Happy 22nd!
Another great post, making me miss the road as usual! Was last in Paris 4 years ago, (2nd visit) just a long day trip from London on Eurostar. London is one of my favorite cities in the world, lots to do and see and jumping off point for the rest of the UK and Ireland. My travel this month is driving from Florida to Utah and Colorado and Texas, work and fun and family, definitely not one of my more expansive trips but its still the road......! You guys be safe and enjoy all those adventures ahead!

Our 22nd
Thanks Dave....all is well. We enjoyed the Eurostar from Paris to London and tomorrow we head back to Florida. We are ready to go back to our home and enjoy the beach. We always enjoy London. Our last blog will come very soon. Your trip sounds fantastic. We absolutely love road trips. So envious. Enjoy.

Dave and Merry Jo, Thank you for giving me the chance to show you my favorite places in Paris. I get the feeling that we could travel together anywhere and enjoy each other's company. Your support, whether during the earthquake in Myanmar, running from the Balinese mafia or treating me to an awesome meal at my favorite restaurant, will always be appreciated.

Paris
Enjoyed your overview of the lovely city. I will be there in 2 weeks so it was nice to get a preview. I was there 40 years ago so guess things might be a bit different! Thanks for sharing your experience.

Can't believe we are missing each other by two weeks. Darn. Yes I'm certain there have been changes in 40 years. You will have a great time. Eager to hear about your trip.

Thanks for the wishes. It is a wonderful city for celebrations. We took a slow pace and savored as much as we could. Walking the beautiful neighborhoods of Paris is all you need to do to be happy.
