Weary travelers


We are now back in Paris.  I hesitate to call it home as this apartment just does not feel like a home.

Above is a picture of Samuel and I atop the main tower in Frankfurt.

Long day on Wednesday.  Can someone who is familiar with european airlines explain to me why both of our air france flights did not de-plane at the terminal.  Are terminal fees too high or are their too many flights and not enough gates?  This is especially frustrating at Charles de Gaulle as the bus ride from where the plane eventually parked was over 10 minutes to the terminal.  This on top of the plane taxiing for almost 10 minutes to its designated parking space.  Overall, it was 35 minutes from the time that we landed until we stepped foot inside the terminal.

Enjoyed Frankfurt, it was a pleasure to visit after being in Paris for a month.  The people are friendly and courteous. The beer is, well, the beer speaks for itself.  Cold and large steins, filled to the rim.

  1. Sorry to hear that your return to Paris wasn't that pleasurable. I'm even happier to hear that you enjoyed the time in Frankfurt. Next time we definitely need to meet each other! I hope you can let me know your next visit a bit earlier in advance.
    Hope despite all that the settling in of the Charters in Paris will come to a happy ending.
