  • Switzerland --> FranceWe did drive through the north part of Switzerland, but the passes through the mountains were closed and it was also rain/snowing. So, what was supposed to be a scenic and quick drive turned into 10 hours of not knowing Posted by meghann922 in Deutschland y Mas | Apr 19, 2013
  • Friendly FacesThursday 18 April Another leisurely start after planning our day. Caught the bus outside the door to the Luxembourg Gardens and walked around the perimeter then through the gardens. Crowds enjoying the day (sunny about 16 degrees), playing tennis Posted by Margrobtripblog in Travel tales | Apr 19, 2013
  • Paris Day 2 - Ile de la Cite, Les Deux Magots & Pont des ArtWe went to the Information Centre on Rue Saint-Honoré. We wanted to buy the Paris Pass so skip the queues to museums, specifically Palace of Versailles. Well, we couldn't escape the queue in the Information Centre. This is to be Posted by FrancisQ in RamBLer WithOUT BorDers | Mar 30, 2013
  • Saying goodbye to La FranceIt's so hard to believe but tomorrow we leave France after more than five weeks here. It seems incredible that our trip is nearly over and we have just a few nights in the UK before we head home and Posted by dawnandhugh in Our Moveable Feast | Apr 17, 2013
  • Public transport woesWednesday 17 April Slept well (+paracetamol) till well after 10 am. Lazy breakfast and ablutions and a load of washing done we left about 1 pm for a trip to the Musee d’orsay. Weather was warm at least 25 Posted by Margrobtripblog in Travel tales | Apr 17, 2013
  • Travelling the motorwayMonday 15th April Slept well again and had a lazy start after conversing with friends and family on skype. Metro to the Arc de Triumph negotiating line changes well. Day started cool with drizzle but has warmed up and Posted by Margrobtripblog in Travel tales | Apr 16, 2013
  • Monday BluesEven on holidays, Mondays can be a real drag especially when you don't get to bed until midnight on the Sunday. We've tried really hard to get moving early most days but it's getting harder as the trip goes on Posted by dawnandhugh in Our Moveable Feast | Apr 15, 2013
  • The City of LightsLast night I understood why Paris is known as the City of Lights. Our day was in two parts yesterday - one in bright sunshine and one which was almost as bright but with an illumination that was man made. Posted by dawnandhugh in Our Moveable Feast | Apr 15, 2013
  • Paris Day 13 - Pere Lachaise CemeteryI guess if you want different sightseeing experience in Paris, Père-Lachaise Cemetery should qualify. It's made for travellers who are jaded by grandiose structures, or people who want to pay homage to their idols. The architectures of the places of dw Posted by FrancisQ in RamBLer WithOUT BorDers | Apr 10, 2013
  • Pathways in the skySunday 14 April Breakfast and planned day. I did diary update while Robert went to supermarket to get milk but found it closed. We packed for the day (warm and at least 24 degrees) left and walked to the Posted by Margrobtripblog in Travel tales | Apr 14, 2013
  • Paris Update Friday & SaturdaySingapore to Paris 11 April 2013 Flight did not leave till 12.30 and b/c upstairs (about 80 seats was packed). A full 3 course meal was to be served but we just wanted to get to bed. Seats converted Posted by Margrobtripblog in Travel tales | Apr 14, 2013
  • A little cultureOur second day in Paris and further confirmation that we're not going to get everything done or see everything that everyone thinks we should - or that we'd like to. Apart from anything else, we're five weeks into a six Posted by dawnandhugh in Our Moveable Feast | Apr 13, 2013
  • ParisThere was a point when we arrived in Paris that I thought that we might not have enough to do in Paris to last the six days that we're here! How stupid am I???? Today was our first day of Posted by dawnandhugh in Our Moveable Feast | Apr 12, 2013
  • Where it all ended..........My apologies for missing yesterday's addition for those of you who are keen followers of this affair. I love the fact that you read it and let me know that you have and feel so guilty when I miss a Posted by dawnandhugh in Our Moveable Feast | Apr 11, 2013
  • Springtime in ParisFull 3 course meal was served with wine when we eventually left Singapore at 12.30 am their time - have no idea what time that was in MLB. We could not fit in another thing and after take off, Posted by Margrobtripblog in Travel tales | Apr 11, 2013
  • Age shall not weary themA change of landscape today. After seven wonderful days in Normandy, we packed up our belongings - filling the new suitcase with our new coats and woollens - and headed off for pastures new. Tonight I'm reporting to you from Posted by dawnandhugh in Our Moveable Feast | Apr 9, 2013
  • Quiet contemplationToday was Sunday. Although not religious individuals, we honoured the day as one of quiet contemplation and allowed our bodies and our minds to rest a little - this holidaying is a hell of a strain you know! That does Posted by dawnandhugh in Our Moveable Feast | Apr 7, 2013
  • The standing stones of CarnacCarnac is situated within the morbihan region of southern Brittany and apart from its wonderful beaches, the main beach of which was voted one of the top twenty in France, holds a hidden gem, the Carnac stones. Its the site of Posted by r11hno in The Carnac Stones | Apr 7, 2013
  • I remember why I'm proud to be British I cried again this afternoon. After Bayeux we visited one of the sites that I was eager to see - the Pegasus Bridge memorial near Benouville which is on the Caen Canal between Caen and Ouisterheim. On the night of Posted by dawnandhugh in Our Moveable Feast | Apr 6, 2013
  • The ultimate sewing circleThe sun shone today. The rain and wind stopped and, while the temperature didn't get above seven degrees, Normandy was a better place. Our relaxed evenings sitting in front of the fire are paying dividends and we both slept well Posted by dawnandhugh in Our Moveable Feast | Apr 6, 2013
  • A different kind of historyFirst let it be said that yesterday was cold, wet and windy. We had more rain/sleet and possible snow than we've had on any other day since we've been here and that's really saying something. The temperature gauge in the Posted by dawnandhugh in Our Moveable Feast | Apr 5, 2013
  • Day 1, flight to Paris We wake up early in the morning that way we can get a head start on our day. We get to take a drive to Los Angeles were our flight will leave. When we bord the flight its not that Posted by stephysteph02 in Our Trip To Paris, France | Apr 4, 2013
  • Paris Day 1 - La Defense, La Grande Arche, Eiffel TowerI must be not only a weary bone traveller, but a truly jaded one. Not only I didn't get excited when Etta said we're going to Paris, I'm actually feeling it's bit of a drag. "Not again!" was my immediate Posted by FrancisQ in RamBLer WithOUT BorDers | Mar 29, 2013
  • Falling over history Today started a little slowly as we had a pretty ordinary night. After some monster beds earlier in the trip, we've lately had some tiny affairs - well double beds actually - and things have got a little cosy. In Posted by dawnandhugh in Our Moveable Feast | Apr 4, 2013
  • I am in awe.....I cried a lot today. It had nothing to do with the weather or my ongoing wobbly tummy but unashamedly I was incredibly moved by my surroundings. Far more than I expected to be and in a way that has Posted by dawnandhugh in Our Moveable Feast | Apr 3, 2013
