October 3, 2011. Sterling, VA. Another Journey.

Fred and Phyllis told us all about this trip.   It was last October 2010, and we four were having dinner in our condo in Chevy Chase.    They talked a lot about a trip they had booked,  coming up in October 2011.  This conversation was unusual because normally, they tell us where they are going and the conversation moves on.  I congratulated them on their choice of a vacation, as it sounded lovely.   Fred finally admitted that they were telling us because they wanted us to come with them.  We laughed and quickly said yes.  By the end of the evening, Ken and I had signed up for the journey.

Up until now, we have not paid much attention to this trip, perhaps because we did not put the details together.  But now we are about to go so I am excited.  This afternoon we have checked into a hotel close to the airport and tomorrow we get onto the airplane.  We  are ready to go.  For over two weeks, neither of us have any responsibilities except to show up.   I am expecting a good time even though my French is not good!!
