Christmas Trips

[Wangee]

Oncle Timmy,

Sounds like there may be a number of SoWal people who are up for Christmas in Paris. I am SO looking foward to it. I've started the novel you gave me, and I'm practicing my francais daily. We'll just have to work on our tres chic wardrobes, and we'll be ready.

Apelle moi!

Wangee is coming to Paris with us.

She is a 4 year old French poodle who I have trained to type out a few lines on the keyboard. please excuse her, as it has been hours since her last walk and she is becoming agitated.....

Uncle Timmy
Have you ever been to Fontainebleau? I really liked it, especially the ride out there. We went one March and had the place to ourselves.

Cil,

I have been to France as a kid with my parents and we went to Fontainebleau, Versailles, the Louvre etc. but that was so many years ago. I am looking forward to seeing all of these great sites again as an adult.

If you have any tips to pass along, let me know.

Any suggestions on places to visit that are out of the way (not in the guide books) would also be welcome.

Great pictures! Love the one of Salzburg in the snow.

I have been doing the whirlwind tours of Europe the past few years, so this time I am definitely staying put in one place long enough that I feel like I have seen it all.

So for me, it will be a week (8-9 days) in Paris with possible day trips to Versailles, Fontainebleu, and Chartres. Plus there are enough museums in Paris to keep me busy for a whole week.

But don't let this stop you and Alli from making your own plans to visit the places that you want, we can all hang out the time you are in Paris and then I can wave you off at the train station....like in the old movies. ( I will even run along side as the train pulls away, throwing kisses.........)

Allifunn -I'm counting on you to research food/restaurants. You can be our guide to French cuisine.

1) you can never get enough of paris. ever...

2) french cuisine - while it is absolutely divine, I found it to be very hit or miss as far as finding the right little restaurants, bistros... (the more expensive restaurants were worth it). but Paris has food from all over the world - we loved this one japanese restaurant...
