To Paris and Back
I can't believe I haven't posted in 6 weeks! The worst part is we had honeymoon to Paris - a wedding gift! - and still no posts!
Well, we had a wonderful time on our honeymoon in Paris, France. We did some sightseeing, ate lots of good food, lots of walks, and took the metro (like the subway) everywhere we went. I came back feeling inspired to research a bit of France's history... so when life slows down - around November - I hope to get started on that.
Ben and I had to laugh when we realized how international our food choices were in France. One day we ate Italian, another day Vietnamese, yet another day Arabic, and even Mexican on another occasion. Don't worry, we did have some wonderful French food too. However, we searched hi and low for some French chocolate, to no avail. I was home a few days and found some in my mom's fridge. What a conspiracy that the French would make it, but deport all of it! I was outraged. We did buy chocolate, however, I think it was German chocolate.

We've been home now since August 22nd (ish) and we both hit the ground running. Me with leading the Guatemala team (trip in October), working with the Walk for Guatemala Orphans Destiny (fundraising for Casa!), etc., etc., and Ben going back to school at RMC. Enough said.
Well, I suppose I should end this blog, and use the rest of my lunch to have a bite to eat!
Thanks for reading!
