105 more days of impatience

Bonjour! 

I've been reflecting back on when this all started.  Well, actually my quest to go to France began 26 + years ago but the blog countdown began 202 days ago. The impatience has begun......

a dear client from CS has given me a mission of locating and reserving a table at a restaurant that she wants Andy and I to eat at called LaSerre.  From all indications it appears to be a very fine restaurant indeed. Andy will need to pack one of his suit jackets to get in the door ay LaSerre.  Luckily, they have a website that has the menu and it has english translation.  I will need to make sure I remember it well so I do not order anything that I would soon not eat....  I intend to enjoy every mouthful of every meal for 14 days!


I have finally begun some constructive language learning.  Poor Talia tried so hard to help me master something french and I'm afraid the best I did were greetings.  I am working on flashcards because I will need all 100+ days to gain at least a smidgen of understanding.  If we are to go into wine country we will need to speak some sort of French because the further in we get, the less likely we are to find english speaking folks.


Well, enough reflecting for today's blog. A bientot!
