It was a 12-hour flight with a stop in Calgary and Edmonton (took off and landed a total of three times...talk about emersion therapy for those afraid of flying!). The seats were uncomfortable, the flight attendants were crabby (exept for Jerome), there was a three year old screaming for six hours during the night, and the woman in front of us coughed incessantly...but, after all that voila! WE have arrived in Paris!!! ITS BEAUTIFUL!!!
Its everything I though it would be (on first glance) and more! My gracious and beautiful friend Amanda greeted us at the airport and took us back to her place located in the 7th arrondissement (wow) of Paris in the Duroc area. She gave us a proper Paris introduction by taking us to her local Boulangerie (bakery) and bying us some baguets and cheese. We sat down after a long day of traveling, ate the freshly baked warm and crusty baguets with some French brie and gouda, and some nice Rose!! MMMMMMMM........I can't even describe the yuminess!
Yeah...well, I can't say too much only that we saw the Eiffel Tower all lit up tonight, walked through old parisian streets in the warm rain, had cafe au lait at a wonderful high-class cafe, and ate a three course authentic French dinner at an exquisite restaurant with goooooooood wine! (I even tried escargo!!! Wouldn't recomment it personallly).
Okay, well, just wanted to let you all know that I am experiencing c'est la belle vie! So amazing to be fulfilling one of my life long dreams.
love you all. Will update soon!
Bon soir mes amis!

Bonjour mon ami!
Espérez que vous êtes bien et le fait de s'amuser. Mlle vous.
(Regrettez que nous ne soyons pas là avec vous tous les deux).
Not bad hey! I cheated actually by using an online translator. Basically it says: "hope that you are well and having fun. Miss you.
(Wish we were there with you both)"
Can't wait until you get back to offer more details.
au revoir et je t'aime,
Leona
Magnificent. That's awesome that you're able to fulfil your dreams like that Amber. It's important. I don't think that I'd like escargot, but everything else sounds great! Hopefully we will be able to take a trip together to New York sometime and see the Big Apple. That would be nice. Blessings on you both.
In Jesus'
