Canal de Saint Martin, Paris.

Wow, we are actually here!
After a long flight we arrived at Charles De Gaulle airport and found our way on to the Metro, which took us to the nearest station to our hotel near the Canal de Saint Martin. After a freshen-up we took off to explore. We found the Chez Prune next to the canal which is a popular watering hole  and of course we stopped to check it out. The canal itself is a very popular meeting place for Parisians. Each evening you can expect to see literally thousands of people sitting by the canal in animated conversational groups picnicing and enjoying a bottle of wine with friends in the cool of the Parisian evening.
It is wonderful to see and I think we will join them tonight with our own bottle of wine and baguette.

Dubai International Airport

The shiekhs of Dubai have decided that they shall have the worlds best airport along with world's best everything else. This involves a new terminal building with capacity for 20 A380-800 airbus aircraft at any one time. The new terminal building is also to be the world's most beautiful!

Today's the day

Well, all the planning, research, booking and rebooking has been done as best we know how. 
We are just now waiting our pickup to go to Tulla (thanks Rosie T) and we can get this circus on the road.
Wish us well, good people, and stay tuned to this blog for the next thrilling instalment, probably from Paris or Dubai.

Welcome

Greetings All,
And welcome to our blog site.

Here you can track Jaclynn and Tony's travels as they do to Europe what the Visigoths couldn't!

By now you will have heard about our upcoming European holiday. Indeed, many of you will be heartily sick of hearing about it. We think this will be a great way to share our holiday with those of you who would like to follow our progress through Europe. 

We are leaving in June for Paris so we are getting quite excited as the time draws near. The countdown is on !!!
