Well… I made my first visit to the Police station. …nothing major and they let me out after only 30 minutes later so all’s good! 🙂

Over-n-Above Blessing #4
So… what did you think of the special friend yesterday? Pretty neat huh?! Did you catch the video of it answering Timo’s call? That’s quite a cry!
Today, I want to back away from specifics and focus on the overall setting, before telling you, tomorrow, about some special family time. Grab a cup of tea or coffee (if it’s not already done) and prepare to relax! Continue reading

- Quick, quick, quick…. Notre Dame, the Latin Quarter, the Catacombs, Sacré Coeur, the Eiffel Tower, the Louvre (well… maybe just to see the Mona Lisa), the Garnier Opera…. Versailles is out of town? Oh dear!
