Going to Paris

Post by Odin »

My family and me will visit Paris this weekend. We will leave Friday afternoon, dine in Belgium or Northern France, and arrive at the hotel in the evening. Saturday & Sunday we will visit the Louvre and Eiffel Tower, etc.

It's only a 4 1/2 hour drive from where I live.

No spitting off the tower, Odin!

I wish you a safe enjoyable journey.

I will be going to Majorca on the weekend. Its a 45 minute drive from here, a hideaway for the rich and famous.
Nahhh, ts just an old mining town in central Victoria. Dosn't even have a shop. Buddy lives there.
You design it, I make it. Copper and Stainless. Down under. PM me.

Thanx guys!

I will not spit from the tower! Promised.

"Miroir" ... just looked it up and it is like 500 meters from where I stay. Maybe give it a try. If it is affordable, that is. Don't want to sound cheap, but I have 4 kids and a wife ;)

Olympic,

Just back from Paris (like a few minutes). I am not going to tell you what happened there. Bad food, "Ile de Notre Dame". I wont go into details. ;) Anyhow, I am back and we had a great trip. Apart from the bad food yesterday.

Saw & climbed the Eiffel tower, walked my legs of in the Louvre, had "du pain" as breakfast. Great. I will post some pics later on.
