Hello, we're back in the states after a 12 hour trip from Paris, to Amsterdam, Amsterdam to Minneapolis. Not bad as flights go, but I'm not anxious to repeat it anytime soon. I know that the food on Air France is better than Delta. The good news is that we are home. It was a great trip. We learned so much, saw so much, ate so much, drank probably too much, and got along as good as 4 siblings, in-laws, spouses can. (actually it was GREAT).<br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">

Good morning!! Our last day in Paris.😧 Can't wait to get home....can't bear to leave. Oh well, everything good must come to an end. Coming home tomorrow so this will be the last blog! I'm going to miss that too. Maybe I'll do one more with our pictures from today.😃</div>

Yesterday, Sunday, was a BEAUTIFUL day. 75 degrees, light wind, and gloriously sunny. Everyone was out and about and on the green boulevard in front of our apartment young families claimed their little patch of grass and spent the day playing and picnicking. The difference from a similar US picnic area is that no one barbecues, infringes on other families, no loud music, no litter, and no loud games. They just sit or play in very subdued voices.<br />

Sunday was also the Paris Marathon, and while it didn't affect us over here on the left bank, we knew from past trips it would snarl traffic in a nightmarish way. So the Reeds left early to go to the d'Orsday and Orangerie museums and Jerry and I walked to the nearby Rodin museum. Both are great, ours entailed less walking.</div>

The d'Orsay is the great Art after 1800 and before modernism (the earlier stuff is in the Louvre). Specifically people go there to see the impressionists (Van Gogh, Gauguin, Renoir, Cezanne, Monet, Degas, etc.) as well as a great collection of 18th and 19th century furniture and sculpture. Here are some of Dee's wonderful photos to fill you up!</div>

<br /><br /><br />Meanwhile, back at the ranch, Jerry and I decided to wander over to the Rodin museum which is just a hop, skip, and a jump from the apartment. Rodin has his "own" musee because he donated all this works to the city of Paris, and the house that he lived in.<br />

We all met back at the apartment around 4:30 and rested (Dee Ann soaked her feet) talked on the phone, etc. Then at 7:30 we started out for dinner. Jerry had a few places in mind. David wanted to be close to the Eiffel tower, Dee and I just wanted something nice for our second to the last night in Paris dinner. Sunday night is a little difficult because a lot of the restaurants are open for Sunday lunch then close, but we eventually found one, after walking miles and building up an appetite. I think we got in our seats about 9:15.<br />

Good Morning! Dave and Dee Ann spent yesterday finding and touring Versailles--all by themselves!!! Yea, Reeds! They left the apartment early in the morning, with maps under their arms and Jerry's advice ringing in their ears and braved the Metro and train to make the 19 mile trip out to the Chateau.<br />

Versailles was built by Louis XIV (14) in 1668 when he took his original hunting lodge and expanded it to the Chateau it is today. The most sumptuous palace in Europe it set the standard for culture and court life right up to modern times. There are 3 main parts: The palace itself which features lavish living rooms for the French nobility. The Gardens are a landscaped wonderland of statues and fountains. And the Trianon Palaces of Marie-Antoinette which gave her a little "get-away" from the big palace.<br />
<br />
These are Dee's pictures, so I hope I get some of the things right, but even if I don't you will get the idea of what this place is like. It took Dave and Dee all day to get to Versailles and back, but they had a great time.<br />

The Hall of Mirrors: No one had ever seen anything like this when it was first opened. Mirrors were a great luxury at the time, and the size of these 17 arched mirrors (directly across from the matching 17 arched windows) was astounding. The hall is nearly 250 feet long and 24 gilded candelabra. At the end of the room was Louie's canopied throne.<br />

The Trianon Palace and Domaine de Marie Antoinette. Versailles began as an escape from the pressures of being king, but in a short time the Chateau had become as stressful as Paris. So Louis XIV and his successors needed an escape from their escape. They built this fantasy world of palaces and gardens to escaped from everyday life. The Grand Trianon was built for a mistress of Louis and he spent a few nights a week here. The flowers were changed daily for the king's pleasure.</div>

Marie-Antionette longed for the simple life of a peasant--not the hard work of peasants --just the fairytale peasant in her imagination. She built The Hamlet, which was an actual working farm with a dairy, a water mill a pigeon coop and a menagerie where her servants kept cows, goats and chickens. The Queen's House -- was like any typical peasant farmhouse, but it had a billiard room, library, a dining hall and two living rooms. </div>

Meanwhile, Jerry and I took bus 82 over to Donald's apartment neighborhood and had lunch, wandered, had a wine on the corner of the apartment and bought some chocolates from the little chocolate shop around the corner. It was a fun day. Off today for the d'Orsay musee, Rodin museum, and ?????</div>

Hello from the city of lights. Paris, France has been Jerry and my favorite place on earth since we came here the first time in 2005. There is something energizing about the city. Energizing, filled with beauty, and truly special.<br />

Besides the iconic landmarks, there is art and beauty everywhere. The city does a wonderful job with flowers everywhere, the streets are cleaned daily, the cafes are cleaned right away, statues are everywhere, its just nice (especially for a big city). And, I know you have heard differently, but the people are SO nice!</div>

So we arrived from Annecy yesterday and immediately came to our new apartment by taxi. It is a 2 BR 1 bath (that's fun with 4 adults), but otherwise spacious and in a nice neighborhood. Right down from the Invalides on the West Bank. (A first for Jerry and I). First pics of the apartment.</div>

We arrived on Tuesday and only had one "real" day in Annecy. On Jerry's bucket list was a boat ride on Lake Annecy, one of Europe's largest freshwater lakes. About around 10 miles long. We were ready!<br />

We met at 7:00 for dinner. Now in the midwest that sounds late, but most restaurants don't open until 7PM after closing at 2:00 from lunch. Jerry was too tired (and didn't feel the greatest after his hot chocolate) to go to dinner tonight. He just stayed in the hotel and read the paper on his ipad. Dee, Dave, and I went to a place called Chez Ingalls, which was a great place. (Insert food Photos here)</div>

I'm blogging, Dave and Dee are eating chips and watching the scenery and Jerry is talking to whomever will listen. We arrive in Paris at 1:17 and then taxi to the apartment in the 7th Arrondissement. Stay tuned for the last chapter of our fabulous trip. We come home next Tuesday. Au Revoir!<br />

Hello! I'm sorry that I totally missed Monday in the blog. I'll try to make up for it tonight and tell you about both days.</div>
<br />
Monday was the first business day of the month, so I spent the morning sending emails, newsletters, etc. for the Norwex business. We left the apartment around noon and met two of our very favorite people in the world Martin and Patricia Lammert on the nearby Place Pie square. Beautiful 70 degree day and sunshine that only Provence can deliver!<br />

We met Martin 3 years ago in Delhi, IA when he attended the graduation from high school of his granddaughter Vicky Agromayer, a foreign exchange student from Madrid at Mac Valley. He and Jerry are the same age and we hit it off immediately. He lives with his wife Patricia in Vaison la Romaine, a small town just a little N.E. of Avignon and we visited them there last year. This year they came to us.<br />
<div>

<div>
After lunch we walked around town a little and went to a beautiful church where they know the parish priest.</div>

The rest of the day was a wash. I finished my business, Jerry did laundry, Dee cleaned and packed. Really nothing. Jerry and I decided we were not hungry for dinner (I know....can you believe it?) so David and Dee went out alone for a burger and fries.<br />
<div>
<br /></div>

Tuesday was leaving day. We packed, we cleaned, we left. Got a taxi to the TVG station (there are 2 stations in Avignon, the city center one, and the TVG (fast train) one.) Here Jerry has made a photo montage of what it's like to travel by train in Europe.</div>

So we came back then went out again to shop and find some lunch. We ate but came home because of the rain. It's no fun window shopping when its raining. Oh but I did take a picture of the street of Jerry's infamous accident.<br />

About 7:30 we went to a great restaurant called Fou de fafa (yup, that is spelled right). It is owned and operated by a british couple and is the #1 rated restaurant in Avignon (out of 300). We had been here last year, and tried to get in the year before. It did not disappoint.<br />

Part of the charm of this little restaurant is the owner/chef who are a 2 man show. She is in the front of the house and he in the back cooking. Antonia and Russell Coughlan. Darling people and very welcoming. Thank you again!</div>

This morning we met Laurence at the train station and went to the Pont du Gard (Roman Aqueduct) which is about 20 miles from Avignon. Another rainy morning, but we were prepared. Dee's back was killing her, so she decided to stay at the apartment rather than ride in a little car all day.</div>

<div>
Pont du Gard is the remains of a Roman Aqueduct that was constructed in the 1st century AD. It is amazing! And huge! </div>

We left off just about to meet our good friend Laurence Brun for dinner. Laurence is a friend through Deb and Jon Luhrs and Andrea Luhrs, who used to live here. Laurence is a French/English teacher who has carved out a niche with companies that require their employees to speak English (or<br />
as it was with Andrea, English speakers to speak French). She is hired by the company to do the training. Such an interesting woman and we try to see her whenever we are in the area.<br />

We came back to the apartment and all slept well (which is pretty rare for 4 adults over the age of 65). In the morning we decided to go to see the huge Roman Amphitheater in Orange about 15 miles away. Walked down to the train, jumped on a train heading north and got out at Orange.<br />

The Classical Theatre is what we came to see. Built at the end of the 1st Century AD it is one of the most impressive sites in the world. The most striking feature is the stage wall that is 37m high with a 3.5 meter statue of Agustus in the central alcove above the stage. The stage is and always has been made of wood. The acoustics are remarkable, so that even a soft whisper on the stage can be heard by all 9000 people seated in the arena. It was originally covered in rich mosaics and frescos. </div>

When we got back to town we were all tired. Dee's cold is better but her back is out. David and I have caught her cold (and mine is developing a cough as usual) and Jerry was just plain tired. So we chose a place that we had been before called Peace and Love. Run by an old Hippie Earth Mother, its a one woman show. She does all the cooking in the afternoon and has a very eclectic view of the world and restaurants.</div>

We were walking down one of the skinny, skinny roads to the restaurant and there was a car coming behind us. We went up on the sidewalk (about 12 inches wide) on the left, there was a girl on the right hand side, and really the car was not large but it took up the whole street. Jerry bumped a pipe sticking out of the building with his left shoulder and fell off the sidewalk and into the car. He really fell into the mirror and driver's side door. Fortunately he didn't get under the wheels, but ended up in the street on his back. OHHHHH NO! The poor driver was ashen face. Jumped out of the car. Oh Monsieur, Ambulance? We got him up and he was fine, but I had nightmares all night about it! Not even bruised! He's a tough old bird.<br />

We arrived yesterday in Avignon at 2:15 and took a taxi to our new digs in the heart of old Avignon. The apartment is a 2BR 2BA with lots of space to spread out. And we need that after being in hotel rooms for so long. We also have a washing machine, so we all get a change of clothes!!! Trust me, that is a good thing!</div>

After we got a couple of loads started in the machine, we headed out for a "snack" and wine. Went down to the main square. Dave and Dee split Moules and frites (Mussels and fries), Jerry had l'soup d'onignon, and I had a margaretta pizza with exactly 3 olives on top. </div>

Avignon is famous because it housed the Roman Catholic Church for a century when Rome was in chaos, and there was a French Pope. It stayed here for 7 popes worth then reverted back to Rome. These buildings (and the whole town for that matter) were built for the new Vatican in 1309 to 1377. We love it because of the great weather, laid back atmosphere, market, and great restaurants all within walking distance. And the town is relatively flat.</div>

Hung up the clothes on our travel clotheslines. Nap time. We simply must get on a better schedule because I was ready for a bath when I got up and crapped out for the night. Jerry needed food, Dave can always eat and Dee went along. I sat and watched the National Boules Tournament finals on TV with no English. It was an experience. But I googled the rules and sort of followed along.</div>

This blog is getting away from me. I missed all day yesterday, but apart from packing, getting on the train, riding on the train, walking uphill to our hotel (NEVER AGAIN) and trying to decide where to eat, you didn't miss anything. <br />
<br />
First off, Why Arles?<br />

</tbody></table>
You know Jerry and I are suckers for Roman Ruins, and actually Arles (and area) has some of the best preserved Roman Ruins outside of Rome. This arena is still used and seats 22,000, but was built in 70AD as a "perk" for the Roman generals and mucky-mucks that retired here to the south of France. See, Rome was smart, when you retire your officials, send them off to another country so they can't gum up the works of the present day government. Maybe we should do that. I'm thinking Branstad could retire to the ....moon?<br />
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
We stayed in Arles our very first trip to Provence in 2011 and had a very cute and knowledgeable tour guide named Andrea Luhrs. Actually she is a friend of ours from Pelican Lake and her Mom and Dad, Jon and Deb Luhrs live just down the road from us. Andrea was working for a music company in Arles and when we came to France, we naturally came to visit her. Well, needless to say, we fell in love with the area. I mean, what's not to love? Quiet, great weather, wonderful food and wine and Roman Ruins.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
We arrived in Arles yesterday in style, sweating, panting, and exhaused from walking the 26 minutes from the train station, lugging our luggage (that's probably why they call it luggage). Jerry didn't think that it would be bad, so his executive decision was that we walk rather than call a taxi. "You're FIRED!" From now on, he doesn't get decision making power!</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Our hotel is charming. Le Calendal, Spa and Hotel. We are on a courtyard of tables and trees, yes there is a spa (hot tub) and we have nice rooms.</div>

After unpacking we realized we had not had lunch and it was 4:00. Of course, being American, we assume that all places are open for food. Not so France. Restaurants, even cafes in this area close at 2:00 and open again at 6:00 or 7:00, so after walking everywhere around the town, we ended up back at the hotel for chips and wine. <br />
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Making dinner plans was problematic also, because we were all tired and didn't want to go very far. Jerry wanted to stay put, The Reeds were amenable to whatever, and I was eating in a Restaurant. We finally chose one with the help of Trip Advisor and set out. Not 50 feet down the road was a nice restaurant! Yahoo! We stopped, and had a great meal!</div>

While there we met an interesting couple, Margaret and Peter who have retired to the area around Carcassone and were here on a "monuments" tour. Lovely "English, Australian, New Zealand" couple who have traveled EVERYWHERE! Hello Peter and Margaret!</div>

We came back the 50 feet to the hotel and went to sleep. Jerry had a little tummy upset, so he is still sleeping, Dave and Dee are off seeing the sites, and I just ate a fresh croissant and fresh squeezed OJ with Cafe au lait. Life is good.<br />
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
We take off at 1:00 for our apartment in Avignon (only 19 minutes away by train). We are all looking forward to "spreading out" in an apartment. We have 2 BR and 2 bathrooms but space to "unpack" and stretch out. Also, a washing machine. I have only worn 2 pairs of pants and 4 shirts so far. Yikes! I am sick of these clothes!</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Dee and Dave are doing GREAT on this trip. Understanding more and more each day and David has gotten so good at pointing to what he wants on the menu! He is a workhorse! He walks, he carries my "steamer trunk" when I can't. Amazing. Poor Dee developed a cold, so she is miserable but doesn't let it get her down, and I am stronger than ever! Working out at the fitness center has really paid off! Thank you Kristy!</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
We are in contact with Laurence Brun and will meet up with her and with Martin and Patricia on this next leg of our journey. I can't wait! A bientot! </div>

Time to regroup. Dave and Dee are exploring the walled city of Carcassonne, Jerry is washing out underwear in the bathtub (I told him to bring more!) and I am catching up with you and then some Norwex business. It's warm here but grey and windy. We will probably be the tourists that hang up their wet underwear on the patio. How Gauche!</div>

The story of Carcassonne: 1000 years before Christ the city was founded on this site. In 1 B.C. it became a Roman outpost. The city suffered long periods of occupation at the hands of the Visigoths and Saracens. In the 8th century it became the home of a powerful Count and started it's fighting history by defeating the Cathar.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
In 1209 the city fell to Count Monfort after siege. He transformed it into a Royal fortress to guard the French-Spanish border. It was destroyed and rebuilt several times. In 1590 during the war of Religion, the city refused to recognize Henri IV as king of France because he was a Huguenot. It was rebuilt at this time and encircled by Ramparts. It later added a double rampart which is still has today and was never captured after that. One of the few that was never breached. </div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
So now you know why it's here. It was restored in the 19th century and has since become a Unesco World heritage site. Plus it is just really cool. Now home to millions of tourists a year it has 30+ restaurants many with traditional cuisine. So now the pictures.</div>

Came back to the hotel to sleep the sleep of the virtuous (and stuffed). Really, when you start eating around 8:30 or 9:00 it leaves very little time to socialize afterwards. But 2 bottles of wine always ensures a great night sleep.</div>

And that brings us to right now. You are all caught up. Today we are meeting the Reeds for lunch at 1:00 in the old city, then I am coming back and seeing if I can't scare up a few bookings for April (MOP month) and maybe some book work. We will leave tomorrow by train to Arles (2 1/2 hrs East) Where we will stay in a hotel and spa. I am looking forward to a hot tub! I will write about the rest of our Carcassonne experience tomorrow on the train. Au Revoir!</div>

Drove down to Carcassonne from Sarlat (about 3 1/2 hours) in style in the Tesla that is just a dream machine. Christophe was a wonderful driver, and despite me leaving my cell phone at the hotel in Sarlat and having to go back 15 miles to get it, seemed to enjoy the Emlet-Reed banter in the car.</div>

Arrived in Carcassonne around 3:00 and spent the day in the walled city. We have LOTS of photos and will share them tomorrow. The time changed last night here so we are an hour behind again. Going to bed soon after a fun day. Thanks for following. A bientot!</div>

This town is so charming. Pretty much a fairytale setting for any medieval movie. Today was the market day. We got a little bit of a late start but we went down to the main old town and there were vendors everywhere! Breakfast of Cafe au lait at the bakery with a croissant and we were good to go.</div>

Jerry had on his Iowa Fleece and it started raining. We ducked under a canopy and a woman said, "You always find Iowa fans where ever you go". Ann and Doug from Iowa City. She a retired teacher, her husband worked at the University. They came to France to visit their granddaughter and are leaving on Monday or Tuesday. Fun to meet a friendly face. Hi Ann and Doug!</div>

Beautifully served, good food, but our favorite was still on Thursday.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Tomorrow we have arranged for our driver Christophe to pick us up and drive us to Carcassone which is about 3 hours away. We could take the train, but it involved some transfers and a 7 hour train trip. Plus I suspect that Jerry and David want to ride in the Tesla again! A bientot!<br />

<br />
When we arrived at the hotel last night, we made it clear we were here for Duck and Caves. The Desk clerk suggested hiring a driver and guide named Christophe who owns a private excursion service for the area. Christophe lives here with his wife and 3 kids and has made a nice living taking people like us to see the sites. <br />

Nice car! Anyway, he suggested picking us up at 9AM so we could be first in line to tour the Font-de-Gaume Cave which is one of the few caves you can actually see the "real" cave drawings not the reproductions. It was discovered in 1901 and contains painting and carvings that date back 15,000 years old created by the Magdalenians. Their purpose is still a mystery, probably religious or spiritual in nature, but they are beautiful!<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjvmShvWev32D9YkaxODo39upSyR-pBfVndO-M2Sc1viqXu-BWJv-IzSez1PZM0Z3-siEM98mFJrRSEgS3qBTVE2yo803w_pJEhWUXdiGE8ul-RkZpOzUlk8KfwbR2OUD2wg7JqAtasGDw/s1600/20170324_092844.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjvmShvWev32D9YkaxODo39upSyR-pBfVndO-M2Sc1viqXu-BWJv-IzSez1PZM0Z3-siEM98mFJrRSEgS3qBTVE2yo803w_pJEhWUXdiGE8ul-RkZpOzUlk8KfwbR2OUD2wg7JqAtasGDw/s320/20170324_092844.jpg" width="240" /></a></div>

There are 80 bison, 40 horses, 23 mammoths, 17 reindeer, oxen, rhinoceros, and wolf, bear and felines. There is only 1 human form. The photos above are from a reproduction as time and cameras are limited due to the fragile nature of the cave.<br />

Totally amazing! <br />
<br />
We were exhausted from climbing over rocks, etc. so we stopped for lunch before the last cave. The last was a cave called Combarelles which houses hundreds of etched animals, much smaller than Gaume, but so many more in number. These were also original! We were so lucky to be able to see them in person.<br />

Did you miss me last night? Thursday was a train travel day and it literally took ALL day to get from Tours to the little town of Sarlat. Trains here are amazing, especially the TVGs which are the fast trains. They go over 100mph (sometimes over 150mph) and move so smoothly through the country side that you hardly know you are moving. <br />

We had a one hour wait for our train to Sarlat from Bordeaux and when it finally came it became apparent this was no TGV. Full of commuters, this train went at most 40mph and stopped at every dinky town between Bordeaux and Sarlat. Like 15 of them. Took 3 hours to travel 1/2 the distance the TGV took. But, the countryside was beautiful, and we saw a LOT of wine being grown. <br />

When we finally arrived in Sarlat, no taxis. So we had to hoof it down the hill and into town from the train station (about a half mile). We were tired and cold when we arrived, but moved into our rooms and then immediately went out for a Fabulous meal in town. This is a little medeival city which is charming.</div>

Our meal was in a tiny (seats about 25) restaurant hosted by a young couple. We chose a wine from the area and each chose 3 courses for the "menu". Jerry, Dee and I chose Foie Gras for a starter which was served with a wonderful marmalade, Dave had Camembert Cheese. Then of course, duck confit for dinner, and assorted desserts. Amazing!</div>

Fun pretty fancy place with virtually no English ("a leetil, Madam") but most of deciphering the menu was up to us. They did have an English menu, but not the specials, so we took a breath and took a chance.<br />
<br />
The wine was from the Loire Valley, so good we ordered another. Kind of a light Bordeaux, perfect for the 4 of us. DeeAnn, David and I had "Le Menu" which is a fixed price for 3 courses. The Entree (we would call it the Appetizer or first course) was little baby shrimps in a wonderful sauce.<br />
<br />
They were whole shrimp, heads and tails and shells on, so we couldn't decide if one should just pop them in your mouth, or peel away. Since there were 30-40 of them, peeling them was an arduous task, but DeeAnn peeled every one of the little suckers. I ate half with shells and half without, and David gave up after 4 or 5 and just ate them. I fiannaly asked one of the waiters who spoke a little English what we were supposed to do. He shrugged that it was up to us. He didn't care!<br />

Jerry had the fresh oysters on the half shell which were amazing.</div>

When we left it was pouring rain, so we came back to the hotel and had a rest and a bath. Around 4:00 we went out in search of food. Now an interesting thing happens in Europe, France in particularly and even more so in smallish cities like Tours. Restaurants, cafes etc close from 2:00 until 7:00 or so, then reopen for the dinner hour which begins around 7:30 or 8. We couldn't find any food. Well, we found some, but David was looking for FOOD and we found little snack finger food. <span style="text-align: center;">Totally soaked and full of "snacks" we came back to hotel, hoping for sunshine tomorrow. We take off for Sarlat la Caneda tomorrow at 11:17 AM. It will take most of the day to get there by train. We go first to Bordeaux and then transfer trains to Sarlat. I will post tomorrow evening that we made it. </span></div>

Our new philosophy of life has kicked in. Jet lag sucks, but we are getting there. I slept yesterday from 1:30 until 4:00, went out for a snack and wine, then blogged, then went out to eat on the corner. then back to bed at 8:00 to 3:30 AM, then we were UP for an hour and a half, then slept until 9:30 then showered and dressed. Jerry crashed again for an hour, then we went walking. Today is raining, but just a little. Jerry bought an umbrella, so that should stop the rain for the rest of the 3 weeks. Isn't that the way?</div>

David and Dee Ann went on a "Chateau" tour and left at 8:00 AM for the day. We had done it 2 years ago so we decided not to go. They will really be dragging tonight, but I am sure will have lots of sites to talk about. And share with you.</div>

Found a restaurant that trip advisor said, "Great Food, No English", but we had had a similar experience 2 years ago in Bordeaux and it was great, so we gave it a try. Le Pampre Fou. </div>

Well, the Reeds are back, and while they nap and bathe before we go out to dinner, I thought I would post some of the myriad of pictures they took. They went to 4 Chateaux, on a mini bus tour with a few other people. They went to: Amboise, Chenonceau, Cheverny, and Chambord. Each were country houses of the top 1%, even the king! These pictures are in no particular order, but you get the idea of why the French had a revolution.<br />

Today/yesterday was travel day. Not fun, but you have to keep your eye on the prize....being in France. We boarded our Delta 330 last night at 4:30 and life has been pretty much hell since then to 4:30 today. Crowded plane (but we paid the extra $100 per person for 5" of extra leg room), terrible food, 2 screaming babies all night long. NO sleep. Arrived at CDG airport in Paris at 7:10, custom lines as long as Disneyworld, Walk, walk walk to the train station in the airport (easily 5 miles away), wait in line to purchase train tickets, eat good croissant in the station. </div>

We are at the MSP airport, through security, through bag check and now at the gate. True to form we are an hour and a half early before we can board the plane, but it is better than dealing with anxiety!<br />

Welcome to our blog! We are Jerry and Jean Emlet and Dave and DeeAnn Reed from Iowa and we are going on an adventure to France. 2 weeks from today we will leave from Minneapolis and fly to Paris. Excited!!!!!</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">This is the Emlet's 6th trip to Europe and the Reed's 2nd. Last year we traveled together to Italy and ended in France. This year it's all France, baby! Jerry and DeeAnn are brother and sister, and Dave and Jean are the "outlaws". All of us are retired and despite various minor physical ailments we are going to brave it again! After all, nothing ventured, nothing gained.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>

<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">This trip will be exclusively in France, our favorite place on earth. We will fly into Paris and take off immediately for The Loire valley where we will stay in the French town of Tours for 3 nights. This is the area where the French nobility had their "country houses". These magnificent chateaux are beautiful and fun to see. Sort of Downton Abbey on steroids. Jerry and I have stayed there before, but it is new to the Reeds, so we will probably do some sightseeing separately some of the time. The town of Tours is charming and it will be a perfect place to begin our French adventure and acclimate from jet lag. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">We will then travel south and west to the Bordeaux region of France. We will stay in Sarlat la Caneda which is another charming smaller city. Sarlat has some of the best preserved medieval architecture and is a great place to explore all that the Bordeaux region has to offer. Mainly, for us, ancient caves and Pate d' foie gras and all things duck! The Vezerez Valley is the home of the prehistoric caves with ancient cave paintings. They date from 20,000 BC and were painted by ancient Cro-Magnon people. Can't wait to see them.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Not too far away from Sarlat is a little town called Carcassone just north of the Pyrenees in the Languedoc. It is a fortified city with a double battlement surrounding it. The streets are like a rat maze, twisting and turning inside the walls. We were there in 2014 and can't wait to visit again.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Off we go to a place we know (and you do too if you have followed our other trips), Avignon in the heart of Provence. We have rented an apartment there for 6 nights and another night in a nearby town of Arles. Great place, great food, great market, great roman ruins, lots of fun. Looking forward to seeing our friends from past trips there and driving out into the countryside to visit some Cote du Rhone Vineyards. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Next is a town on the Swiss border, Annecy, in the Alps region. We will stay in this small fairy tale town for 2 nights. Looking forward to the Alps and Swiss fondue and there is a LAKE there! Probably a boat ride will be had!</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">We will end this trip with a week in Paris, Normally we stay by the Arc du Tromphe but this time we will stay on the other side of the Seine in the Marais. Looking forward to getting to know a different neighborhood hanging out at cafes. We have rented an apartment that looks just great!</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Well, there you have it. Our trip is planned, our bags aren't packed but I'm at least thinking about what I'm taking. Can't wait to get started! A bientot!</span><br />
