we have landed
plane was delayed two seperate times
door wouldnt seal and engine wouldnt start
almost twelve hours on the plane; scheduled for seven
plane ride was nice
minus old man winter in the row behind us listening to "shake it" so loud i thought he had a boombox on his lap
on demand movies should be on every plane
took off at 630pm msp time; landed at 934am paris time
forgive any typos but the keys are mixed up here
forgive qny typos but the keys qre ,ixed up here
the last sentence is typed using american key positions
back to the trip
three successful trains to reach our hotel
not bad for two rookies in france
joel would be so proud
as of now we have been up for almost 30 hours straight
needless to say we are tired
could not check in until 330
dropped off the bags and started to walk
got to the seine and notre dame
had some lunch where no one spoke english; interesting
it was cloudy and cool with off and on rain
we walked a lot
got lost a lot
finally checked into our hotel
tried to plan out the rest of our time here
we will be doing the big sights tomorrow
also buying our train tickets to switzerland for sunday
this internet cafe does not allow my camera to upload pics
so that will have to wait
i did get a great picture of the sun setting while we were over hudson bay
off to grab some dinner
some water
and some sleep

Forgot to mention the confusing Euro-keyboards; you did a great job. Greater job on the trains to the hotel, also. Continue to be careful, but, HAVE FUN!!! I read your 1st Paris blog entry to Grandma. She was tickled and sends her love to both of you. JJS
Thanks for the update. Must have been interesting ordering lunch where no one spoke english. Have fun tomorrow. Love B&B
