Paris Pictures
Yes, we were really in Paris! Yes, the Eiffel Tower is amazing! Yes, it was raining but it didn't matter - we were in PARIS!
This is the front door of the Justice Building. Kimber and I happened upon this wonderful building while looking for something else! The police cars and TV vans in front were a dead giveaway that something important either was happening or had just happened inside.
Notre Dame Cathedral. This magnificent church takes your breath away. Because Luke had taken an architecture class at K State before I left, he told me all the things to look for and appreciate. He was right.
Imagine how beautiful this window would be if the sun had been shining.
Kimber, the world traveler, had Euros and pounds (which we referred to as "English money") in her very chic change purse. I know, I know, it looks like a plastic baggie, but it was so much more. I loved it when we would be getting ready to pay for something (a chocolate crepe, perhaps?) and she would say "Oh, I've got money" and out would come the plastic baggie, er, I mean, coin purse!
Just a Few Pictures
This is Priya loaded up with all the goodies we brought: Moon Pies, jams, jellies, Reeses Peanut Butter Cups, Peanut M and M's, sunflower seed cookies, etc. etc. What is funny about this is that Chet asked Priya to ask me to bring PeanutBUTTER M and M's, not Peanut M and M's, which they have in England. The girls couldn't understand why I brought candy from the US that they could buy in the UK. Guess you'll have to ask Priya!
Kimber and I are clearly having a great time on our London tour. The man in the background will never be the same....
I was excited to see that Aunt Ida now has a legitimate job.

YIPPPPEEEEE!!!!! YAHOOOOOOOOO!!!!!
My camera! She's home! (I consider my camera a girl, don't you?) At any rate, my camera arrived yesterday and I looked at all the pictures last night. As you may remember, Kimber's camera was funky sometimes so she would use mine - that's why its disappearance was bad on several levels. So, many of the pictures were a surprise to me which was fun.
Tonight, while CB is at the golf course, I will do my best to add photos. There are some great ones and proof that I did, in fact, go to Paris and see the Eiffel Tower!
Stay tuned!
