To Barcelona!

On our way to Barcelona! We are currently waiting for our plane in the Orly airport. Our driver at TVR Transportation was early and came with a nice big car to take us to the airport – I must say their service has been exemplary. They were on time for both airports (early actually) and had cars large enough to fit the four of us quite comfortably. I was able to pre-pay with a credit card, so there was no need to carry all of that cash to pay for the driver.

Orly airport is very nice – no free internet though. If I had more time – or planned a little better, I would have gotten a pre-paid card for Orly and Charles d’Gaulle.

Here are the details for anyone traveling here in the near future:

We are all anxious to get on the ship. We arrive in Barcelona around 3:00 and the ship leaves port at 9:00 tonight. If you see this post, it means we made it to Barcelona!

Looking back on Paris, it was a lot of fun. I wish we had more time to visit the gardens or maybe Versailles. I also wish our bags would have arrived with us. It seems that all of the bags were delayed at Heathrow. That airport is insane. We had to take a bus out to the plane because there is no room at the terminal. There were tons of planes parked in huge lots – no wonder the bags got lost.
