Queue Day



We woke up yesterday to beautiful sunshine and we decided that we would join queues.

First, it was for the boat trip along the Seine. Then at the base of the Eiffel Tower, which was for a solid hour and a half and then for the elevators at the second level, then for the elevators down back to the second level, the elevators back down to the ground level and finally for the boat trip back!

But it was a magic day. The boys were magnificent (me and Leigh) and Anthony and Lach behaved well too! We farewelled Cassie with some much needed coffee and pastries from Paul (he is a good guy). She was an outstanding travelling Aunty and the boys already miss her, particularly Lachlan who had become accustomed to sharing his double bed with her.

Bonjour - Ou sont les toliettes?





Welcome back after a long delay from the blog.

We are currently in Paris, but I will try and give you a whirlwind update.

After our time in London, we flew to Edinburgh, Dublin, Leeds and now obviously Paris.

I loved catching the 'dart' when I was in Dublin but not when I got on the wrong train and went all the way to Bray (which is the last stop on the line so I was really stoked). Here is some landscape pics fromo our travels thus far.
