I'm back Tabarn...

Me voilà de retour dans un Paris tout gris, mais toutes les bonnes choses ont une fin et ce voyage restera comme une aventure exceptionnelle. Ce n'étaient pas des vacances, j'étais écrivain en vadrouille. Je ne dépensais pas mon argent comme un touriste, je l'investissais dans une entreprise...

28 hours on a train, a missed connection, Italian ogling and a tent.

…We went to sleep in Paris, awoke to the sunshine in Nice where we hopped off for our train swap & had time to have a quick coffee and crissonte in the extreme heat (and it was only about 8am, crazy!) We hopped back on a train and made our way past the amazing sea side cities of...

Goodbye to friends, train to Paris

It was sad to have to leave Kris and Paul and gorgeous Zoe today, but we did so at lunch and head to the train station where we were to catch our first over nighter to Venice, Italy. The train to Paris was again uneventful, a small wait and then onto another train for the night. Our little...

Paris and then Caen. Paris blog is not working! Caen... war memorials and lost sunnies...

SO, for some reason the Paris blog is not working, so we will toss in the information on Paris into the Caen blog. Paris the city of lights, love, art and bread! The city is a little on the expensive side, for accommodations, and for nightlife. Not that there is a lack of it in the...

French Island hopping, picnic under lighthouse, aquarium and crepes for dinner

Near La Rochelle is an island, which I am very sorry to say, I have forgotten the name of (shame on me) but this was our destination today. It was another bloody hot day, requiring from me a hat (I brought one yesterday thankfully!) and a bottle of sun cream to be applied. Chris of course just...

Smiling, happy, friendly faces from home and yummy French meal by the port

As great as it has been, today was the day to make a move from Paris down to La Rochelle (west of France) to see our good friends Kris and Paul and their bub Zoe who are also visiting France at this time. It was so nice to see them again; you don’t realize how much you miss home until you see a...

Eiffel tower once more (we can’t get enough) the worlds busiest roundabout and Ems new dress

The plan today was to get up super early, beat the line up for the Eiffel Tower, go up, have a squiz, back down, to the Louvre, check out Mona, then chill in a park… How ambitious were we?! Yes, we got up bright and early and yes we made it to the Eiffel Tower nice and early… but we still had...

Eiffel Tower, Notre Dam (minus a hunch back)

Oh my goodness, it is HOT here. So, so, SO hot. Just waking up you're wiping the sweat from your brow. I'm melting terribly. Em isn't good in the heat and she spent the day drenched in sun cream, reapplying it often, the sky was blue and the sun was beating down on us all day. I enjoyed...

Pardon, Parlez vous anglais?

Well, here we are, finally in France, Paris to be exact, and so far, are loving it. We’ve had such a full on day that we haven’t had a real chance to check the place out yet (so so tired) BUT, what we have seen thus far, is great! We started the day by getting up nice and early, and with...
