Monday 10th –14th August, Paris, France


We have 5 days in gay Paris and although this will be our third visit to this beautiful city, we both are excited and want to revisit places that we’ve been before!! We can never be bored of the Lourve - each time we go, we leave with a new perspective. We also visit the d’Orsay and are wowed by Van Gogh and Renoir. We have an evening at Mont Mart and do our best to consume as much Steak Tartar and red wine that is humanly possible! We drink at the Latin Quarter and enjoy people watching...
On one of the days we walk down one of the most exclusive streets in Paris to see people armed with Chanel, Hermes and Cartier bags! We also see a customised golden Ferrari and a Rolls Royce with orange velvet interior amongst other things. What financial crisis???
We’ve had have an awesome 6 months... from Africa to our adventures in the Middle East and the decadence of Europe..... but now we begin to count down our days. On Friday we’ll be flying back to Sydney for three and a half weeks. Whilst we’ve been away, Beverly was diagnosed with Hodgkin’s Lymphoma and has been undergoing chemotherapy. We can’t wait to give her hug and see everyone all our family and friends. There’s no doubt that Sydney is our home and we can’t wait to be back there... even if only for a little while :)
