OK, now to TALK about the trip. It was absolutely brilliant, I couldn't really fault anything. It was hard on our feet due to all the walking we had to do, and the Metro made London Underground seem as safe as a playground (LOL, believe me, when you've nearly got trapped in the metro doors TWICE, you can say that) but it was all worth it.

Of course, we spoke quite a lot of French. Generally, Katherine, Victoria and I understood most of what we heard, although whilst sat admiring the French architecture, a man came up and asked us, in French, what we thought meant, "Can I take a picture of you?" We all looked at each other for a split second. I was about to say "Non!", but Katherine then said, "...er....nous sommes anglaises?" The man looked at us slightly confused, but then with more gesturing towards the camera, we realised he wanted US to take a picture of HIM! Oops!

Sometimes am very glad I'm vegetarian. Snails and frogs legs were served up, and yes, the non-veggies had to try them. It was interesting watching all the grimaces as the snails went in Of course, I had to cringe as Katherine and Victoria chewed and swallowed with clenched fists and screwed up eyes!

I will tell some more, but it really is time for lunch now so I'll be back later.
