Had our little breakfast and got ready for landing.  

Took a few minutes to figure out how we wanted to arrive at our house but was decided to get a Navigo pass which can be used for train, metro and bus.

It's 63 degrees here.

Had a nice ride on the train and got off at La Place where the owner of the house met us and took us to it.  His wife showed us around the house.  We were tired and hungry. 

The owner asked if there was a Lisa here snd if course I said I was and he gave me an envelope.  It was from my Aunt Joan and Uncle Larry in Connecticut welcoming me to Paris and for good luckbon the race course.  How wonderful!  Merci beaucoup!

We got out for a walk and mary found a nice restaurant off the beaten path.  It was good.  I will post a photo of the specials.  Waiter was Sammy (sp?) And he didn't speak English and between the four of us  we were understood.  We got an appetizer, entree and dessert for €15 plus a bottle of French wine was split between us.

I had and egg dish with a nice sauce for an appetizer, beef with mashed potatoes and creme caramel for dessert.  Mary had bruchetta for app, salmon for entree, and creme Brule for dessert.  Deb had the egg dish, beef, and pear torte and Libby had pate, veal and pear torte.  It all looked very good.

After lunch went to grocery store for breakfast supplies.  Back to house and Deb and Libby went to bed around 6 pm.

We are 6 hours ahead of you folks on the east coast.

I will head to bed soon as I have been up for 31 hours or so and then the 6 hour time change know top of that.

Plan for tomorrow is to go to the Louvre and get a cup of hot chocolate that Mary has remembered since her time here previously.  Looking forward to it.
