Arrived in Paris!

We're all safe, sound and tired. We arrived in Paris on time and are currently on a comfy bus half way to Strasbourg. Much to my relief all luggage came with us! Most of us slept in bits and pieces on flight. The bus is quite quiet right now so more sleep is occurring. We are all anxious to shower because Air Transat decided to heat the plane last night. Something about a blanket shortage. Hahaha
We stopped and had lunch at a highway side cafeteria which was a nice variety of french foods. Some of the kids were taken by the lack of seats on toilet bowls that we have taken advantage of in Canada.
All in all everything so far has gone quite smoothly and the kids have behaved so well. I will add a. Bit more later once we arrive in Germany. We are currently driving through Champagne country. The amount of wheat fields is impressive. No wonder France is known for its bread.
Cheers

    Hi all,
    Karen, thanks so much for the update! I'm glad that things have gone so smoothly so far and that all is well. I can remember those European toilets- quite a shock the first time!

    Thanks for taking such good care of everyone. Have fun!
