Leaving Paris

I’m sitting in the St Lazarre station waiting on my train to Caen. I did not end up doing much in Paris this time around except for a visit to the Arc de Triumph (jet lag got me good this trip).

I should be in Caen in a few hours.

Here

Got into Paris about two hours ago. Took a train down to Gare du Nord but then decided that I did not have the energy to devote to getting to the hotel via train/metro today so I took a taxi for the rest of the trip.

Now I am sitting in front of the hotel with about two hours to burn until I can check in (I need sleep!).

Maybe a walk or two around the block…

Waiting…

Took a shuttle down to SeaTac since the clutch is still out in the Miata (three months without missing the car — I’m leaning toward selling it now). I got here way too early and discovered that the Air France counter doesn’t even open until noon.

So, now I have to cool my heels in a little coffee shop for three hours before I can check my bags and get into the airport proper.

Sucks.

blogging the France trip (kinda not)

Well, I have been too lazy to do much research but I still do not know why my mobile blogging tools cannot get an image or any other HTML uploaded properly to this blog. So, while I may add a few text blog entries here during my vacation, I will not be uploading photos.

What I will do is try to take regular random pictures and upload them to a MobileMe gallery that I just created (see it here).
