We've landed...what a month!




Although there were stormy days navigating through clouds of process and incompetence, the silver lining was a month of real quality time with the people we love.


In the last 5 weeks we stayed and visited with Mark & Cherry, the Moffat's, the Carter's, the Charlton's, the Thompson's, the Slick's, the Magnussen/Gillespie's, and the long stays with the McMenamin's (Paddy, Mimi & Scotty). Thank you for sharing your homes with the Paris B-C's. It was a time to visit, reconnect with friends, meet new family members(hello Harry), and generally stregthen our roots before branching out.


In the end we are here... in the apartment (new landlords seem great). The girls are excited, mostly to reconnect with their toys which have been in storage for the past 5 weeks - Baby, Polly & Barbie, its great to see you again. For the next few days, we will be unpacking, getting the lay of the land, and exploring the Parisian-free Paris (It's true. All Parisians get the heck out of dodge in August. Boutique shopping will have to wait, cause there is nothing open here, until Sept.) More from the Eiffel Tower tomorrow. -rbc/mjm
