Happy New Year!

Well it has been some time since I've written to the Blog.  By way of catch up...

Jill and I returned to the U.S. for ~15 days. We had a wonderful Holiday Season with our family and friends.  I think we had a social event every day/night with the exception of one.  Christmas was peaceful, Bryan turned 25 and we celebrated "the ball drop" with a class of champagne together.  All was right with the world.

On January 2nd I returned to Paris with Matthew.  He is here for 10 days.  We used the Monday we arrived to orient him to the area.  So far he has tried many of France's fine (but different, next time you see him ask about the cow's tongue) foods, seen all the tourist sites and visited 8 museums.  We bought the 4 day museum pass so he would go see 1-3 a day (depending on the size and location) while I was at work.  On Saturday we went to the market, the Musee de Louvre and Notre Dame.  Along the way we have sampled a few beers and some different wines.  So far so good!

This Sunday we had a laid back day.  Church, a cup of coffee at the cafe, a lunch at home and then a walk to Trocadero.  We saw 3 or 4 street performers.  A bike rider, dancers and Indian flute players.  Flat Ryan went with us.

I'm trying to get Matt to write something for you...
