Bon Voyage Celebration Paris - Bastille Day



Last night - Paris let it all hang out to wish us a good trip home. Millions of people gathered around the Eiffel Tower to join in our celebration.

Tomorrow - Lulu sends her students back to America and we will catch a high speed train to Italy. We will spend a night high in the Alps at Chamonix on the French/Italy border. We will take a cable car up 15,700 foot Mount Blanc - then maybe come down the other side on the cable car in Italy.

We have 8 day first class Eurail passes good for travel anywhere in France and Italy. If you buy them in America - they are only $400 each.

Oh yes - the Parisians were also celebrating July 14th - their Independence Day. After a bottle of champagne it just seemed like they were celebrating our trip and happy to see us going home. :-)
