Here is Joe’s portion of the Bonjour for the day.  I got it after I had already sent mine.
 
My flight went very well, and I got to Paris five minuets early.  My checked bag did make it, and I was able to get to the train station in a very reasonable amount of time.

The train from Paris to Caen took two hours.  A family sat next to me with a little boy Danny’s age.  He was so much fun to watch!  He was eating dried apricots like candy, and he had a sticky mess everywhere!

I got to the hotel at 11:00, and they were very kind and let me check in early.  I put my bags in the room and then headed downtown to see what I could find.  I found some AMERICAN food!  McDonalds!?!  I usually don’t
even like McD’s, but it is American!

I just walked and walked today because I did not have anything else to do!  Then about 15:30, I made my way to the airport to get Bro. Madle and Bro. White.  I rented the van, and then we headed off to try to practice driving in this city of all one-way streets!

We ate supper at a steake house!  It was good!  I am enjoying the food if you have not noticed!

We have been having a great time of fellowship!  Tomorrow, Dr. Vineyard gets here, and we will have to quit messing around!


A demain,
 
Joe
