Said in a grand voice, with a sweep of the hand, standing at the very top of the Eiffel Tower.........in the pouring rain. Why? Because it always must rain on us when we're sightseeing! It did however cut down dramatically on the tourists. The Americans are all afraid to get wet.
Hannah, Meaghan says you both are coming back here some day. Maybe your mom and I can plan some glorious trip for you both. Tam, think about all those stupid pieces we spend hours digging out of my boys' bunks- remember the wars? The 'Land' of their obsessions.....
Today was amazing. We came in on the highway that became the Champs-Elysees, so we came over a hill, and POW!! The Arc De Triomphe! Je suis amazed!
Off to the German edge of France tomorrow, and then to Germany proper. Hopefully I'll find internet access. The next clue then would be Mad King Ludwig's castle, (after the trials,) and then the squirt gun castle. See you then.....

Awesome idea Meaghan!!! It's pretty hard to imagine me going to Paris though, I'm just sitting at my desk with a box of snacks. (Oh well, maybe I'll graduate to French caffes someday.) I'm reading the Marie Antionette royal diary right now and am imaging you all riding through the french countryside in a guilded carraige. Everyone at church misses Meaghan, (I think even Johnny.) By the way, when you guys go to Germany, don't mess up your trip by calling one of the guards a 'Saur Krout'. (I, know, I know, corny, but I just had to say that. Don't let rain deter you all, travel on Stuarts!!!!
