Globe Trotting Again !




Charlotte Woodson Antiques

Today my dear Paris loving amie Mary, and I are off to Paris.  If the "standby gods" are willing, we'll be arriving at CDG at about 6:15 am Paris time Thursday ( CDT 11:15 pm Wed.). Don't you worry, we will hit the ground running - and let the adrenaline rush do its job.  This trip, I will be meeting dear friends once again, and many new ones as well.  It will be a busy but fun trip no matter the weather. Mary and I have both made a list of things we've always wanted to see or do and this time we're determined to cross some of those places off our list.   I have blog posts already scheduled and will hopefully be able to share some of our adventures each and every day.  I promise to take a zillion photographs to share as soon as I return home.

  2. Well, there's no need to wish you a wonderful trip because of course it will be a wonderful trip. Hope you are packing warm boots and thermal underwear. Look forward to a chat on the phone one day. To you and Mary - have a ball!

  18. It's supposed to rain through Friday, but then Saturday is supposed to be partly sunny to sunny and up around 13 or 14 C ! Go figure... don't know if you'll see much snow (or if you even wanted to...)

    For some reason I was thinking you'd said you were arriving the 12th... is that when you're going home?

    Do you have a phone in Paris you could shoot to me by e mail ? Monday may be the only day I'd even have a remote chance of getting in to town, don't know what you have planned for Monday 10th... You can reach me at :

    33 6 16 78 41 27 (from Paris on local system 06 16 78 41 27 )

    Safe travelling to you, and happy arrival this morning, oh boy, you'll be landing soon, and I'm just off to bed now... crazy ?

    Wishing you and Mary a fabulous time whatever happens ! Would be great to see you though, and I'll bet Mary has some more surprises up her sleeve like Picpus...
