We have landed at Charles de Gaulle airport. Our air travel came in three parts: Victoria/Vancouver; Vancouver/Montreal; and Montreal/Paris. The experience reached the expected degree of discomfort, but I enjoyed the meal and “pigged out” on movies. For the second time, I watched The King’s Speech and again cried at the conclusion. Enjoyed ”Genius Within : the Inner Life of Glen Gould and Toy Story 3.( I teared up at the end of this one too, but I was over-tired at this point). Also, saw Another Year and part of Blue Valentine.
We had enough time at Charles de Gaulle to become well-acquainted with the terminal and easily caught our train to Arles. The signature colour of the building is pink. How French.
Un Tip pour les Toilettes: The airport and rail station are one building. Washrooms are free in the airport. They cost .50E in the rail station. How French (encore).
We have found our little room at Hotel du Musee in Arles - small, but comfortable and overlooking a very charming courtyard garden.
It's good to hear that you have arrived safe and sound and that no bad luck happened to you on Friday the 13. We are looking forward to traveling along with you on your journey through France and Spain.
