Three hours later when we arrived in Paris my dad mentioned that we did not yet have a hotel for tonight because he didn't want to have booked a room and then have us not make it to Paris that night. We ended up finding a hotel close to the Arc De Triomphe on one of the streets that spiderwebs out from the center. This was a little hole in the wall hotel with two tiny beds in a very tiny room. My dad said that this would have to do for tonight as the next day we planned on moving to a larger more americanized institution.
The next day as promised we moved to the larger hotel, and it was also the beginning of the air show. The air show is one of the major parts of this trip (in fact it was the reason behind the trip) and so I will talk about it over the next couple of posts. Also it will be a lot of pictures and descriptions.
Also interspersed in the next couple posts will be pictures of the city that I took and I will talk about the culture so that readers have a better understanding of this magnificent city.
Thats awsome that you travel. I used to travel alot for mission trips to places like Kiev,Russia. I also traveled alot when my dad was in the Army. Its so cool to go around the world and expirence different cultures and ways of life. I miss it, because now im stuck in the bubble of Weston. Nice blog and i love flying to and my Dad at one time was stationed at Right Patterson Air Force Base in Dayton Ohio, and i learned how to fly because his friend was commander of a fighter wing of F-16's and he had several trainers. They were two seaters and i flew them whenever the Brass( high ranking officers) werent there. It was amazing, and fast. I receievd my pilots license at the end of that year.
ReplyDeleteThats really cool that you have your pilots license. I have taken a few flight lessons but they were in C-152 and C-172 (Cessnas) so nothing as exciting as the trainers you probably flew.
