About this blog

Beginning as a solo journey, I first spent 3 museum-filled days (and 3 theater-thrilled nights) in London.

I then straggled bleary-eyed onto the 5 AM Eurostar train to Paris and immediately boarded a second train to France's Loire Valley. There I joined with 5 friends (Bob, Richard, Richard, Shawn, and Toby) as together we completely shanghaied a chateau (see the picture) near Blois.

Abandoning our castle a brief 4 days later, we quickened our pace for an urban finale to the trip, i.e., a couple of days in Paris before our return home.
