Marne La Valle - Day 1


Yummy pastries!













View from our patio in Marne La Valle.






Yes, we did arrive here in Marne La Valle. The resort is just beautiful! Patrick and I walked to Champions Supermarket (about a 10 minute walk from the resort) and marveled at the differences between American and French grocery shopping. Good luck finding peanut butter in France!

We even waited for the Boulangerie and Patisserie to open (everything seems to close between 1 and 3:00pm). We got three different pastries and a baguette. I must admit the bread was the BEST I ever had. It was still warm from the oven and had a crunchy exterior and soft interior. SOOO good. We have not tried the pastries yet, but they sure do look awesome!

As for the resort, the Marriott is really nice. It has FREE wired Internet access in the rooms and the indoor and outdoor pools are just beautiful.

Hopefully, our luggage will arrive in the morning.
