eeeoie, I think Bob's point was that the person sending the postcard spelled it incorrectly (both "Straights" and "Gibralter").

Not to mention "consummate".

There must be some other reason to go all the way to Disneyland Paris -- perhaps a free trip or something. Otherwise, it is truly puzzling how anyone could opt for plastic pseudo-culture from Disney to showing children something cultural, beautiful, artistic and meaningful that can influence them in a positive way in the future, and possibly, change their lives. There is no question: Paris for the most part and Disney for the day only. Take charge. If your kids are dictating to you, the parent, where they want to go, there is already a problem. And I don't want to here the excuse: "oh but I don't want to upset the kids." Time for tough love .... and tough culture!

Let's not forget "denigrate".

Hear the excuse was my meaning. Excuse the typo, please.

This inquiry has made me quite curious. Where do you live? How old are the kids? Have you been to Europe yet? Have the kids been to a Disney park? My guesses are: midwest USA, 3-9, no and yes. ??

disneyland paris for 4 days where we will be staying. I intend to make a daytrip to Paris during my stay. Would one day be enough to see the major sights, Notre Dame and climb the Eiffel tower and the Champs Elysees etc? <BR><BR>Yes, you can see all of Paris in a morning with time in the day for an afternoon flight to London and a night seeing all of the &quot;major sights&quot; in London, too.

Sally,After one day in Paris you will need two extra days to remove all the poop de chien from your families shoes.
