Well, we are back. Ladybug and I had a blast. Was quiet for a change but we both missed having the kids. Food was excellent. People were very nice, and skinny. Cars were VERY small. We called them "clown cars" cuz they all looked like something from the circus. Walked and shopped more than anybody int their right mind should. Took some public transport. Busses were actually clean. Very nice. If it weren't for all the folks that spoke french, I would be able to move theire very easily. Oh, except one thing, I only saw one pickup (a GMC) the entire week. No big vehicles and the roads would not permit them anyway. Anyway, I had never really held a desire to go to Europe, but I'm very glad I did. Was mucho fun! Thanks for dragging my ass half way across the world ladybug!!!
