Paris, France via Okpo, So. Korea

Ok-I know how bad I've been about sharing the adventure we've been on. I'm sure that most of you have given up on any new postings...but here goes. Because of Dale's business travel we were able to make a trip to Paris after Thanksgiving. We were gone nine days, but Dale only had to work one of them. We thought we might be disappointed considering the time of year it was, but as a UK Chevron co-worker of Dale's stated, 'Any time is a good time to go to Paris.' He was right. We were relieved that the Paris subways were running well by the time of our arrival as just a few days before there had been much frustrating gridlock due to a transportation strike there. We wore out our subway map and walked enough to enjoy guiltlessly both simple and elegant cuisine. Walking through the streets, crossing over the Seine River on all the old bridges, visiting museums, gothic cathedrals, palaces, parks, and of course the famed Eiffel tower is simple amazing.
