Posting from the road, as requested by Nancy. Paris was fantastique. Skiing in Briancon was great. Now in an Internet cafe in Avignon. Next stop, le Palais de Papes. My first time fears are gone. This has been parfait, so far. Weather sunny and warmish almost every day. Tomorrow Arles, then Chateau Longsard outside Lyon, as recommended by Rex. Then Paris again, then home. Then, hopefully, moving to France. Maybe Forcalquier. Tres belle. More later.

Thanks for the update, Guy! Glad to hear you are enjoying yourself and the weather is cooperating. <BR>How have you found the food, art, people? <BR>Gigi <BR>
