Update from Denver

Greetings from the mile high city where it is a sunny and warm 72f.

The flights over were uneventful except that the bag with my clothes never made it to Cincinnati(connection) where I had to clear customs. The bag did finally arrive about 18 hours after I did. This trip was a good trial run for when I return in 3 weeks with Samuel. The connection in Cincinnati, 70 minutes, will be difficult with him as we will have to clear immigration and customs. Where we be near the end of the line as we will have to wait at the gate for his pushchair which will be gate checked, or(I just had this thought) I can check it and retrieve it at baggage claim. I will have to check into that possibility also. I am unsure of airline policy if I miss the connecting flight due to delays at immigrations or customs. Will have to research this before we leave.

Have had a good time in Denver, especially enjoying the food. So far we have been to Caldonia's for BBQ, had a deep dish Chicago style pizza, very good Mexican with margarita and I have been to my favorite sandwich shoppe for a BLT. It is not that I prefer American food but it is nice to have a change of pace every once in a while. There are certain type of food that just are not available in Paris. Tonight we are going to a steak house where I will have a huge cut of prime rib.

Have been skyping with Julia and Samuel every day. It is nice to see him on skype and see his reactions to me on the computer but I miss him(and Julia) terribly.

TTFN
