We are in Paris

Within 20 minutes of finding our paris apartment, we were having breakfast, looking at Notre Dame, when the police stopped traffic for the horses to pass-there were so many-not sure of the name of the "parade". First thought off the plane: there is a wonderful chill in the air! I was actually cold!

About to board

This is the first time I have ever been on a "double decker" plane. After entering the gate, we went up an escalator to the gate for the second story of the plane. Now, we are waiting to board!

Petronas Towers for lunch

Made it to KL last night and decided to try go to the Petronas Towers. No luck going up as all time slots were sold out, so we are having lunch at the adjacent mall (after we all bought gum!) the picture is of us on the train from the airport / hotel to KL. supposedly, the flight is on for tonight...hoping so!

Paris flight cancelled

Because of the air-traffic controller strike in France, our Paris flight was cancelled. So, we will stay in Kuala Lumpur for at least one night. While it is a bit disappointing, the adventurer in all of us is super excited about the unknown journey that awaits us!

Big Day

Today was a momentous day for two reasons: last day of school for students, and I wore jeans for the first time since July (could it be that I am actually getting used to the heat?!). Whoo-hoo! Ethan and Laney came home for a quiet afternoon, while Josh and I worked until the end of the day. Josh attended his first SAS graduation. We are off on our summer travel in one week! Here's some pictures from the weekend.
