Shayne - excellent casting for Writer's Block.  I, too, would love to see it filmed.

For me, sleeping until 5 a.m. is "sleeping in."

We have had a delightful last day in Paris - several hours at Musee Rodin, a walk through Les Invalides, and shopping on Rue Cler.  Parfait!

DR Ginny, no trips to the theatre or Moulin Rouge or Maxim's or Folies Bergere?

I'm glad you've had a good stay, but your vie parisienne would disappoint Gardefeu and Bobinet!
...

No, DR Elmore, we didn't even get to see CABARET at Theatre Marigny.  Gardefeu and Bobinet will just have to get over it.

At the Rodin Museum today we learned that his critics lamented the lack of arms on one of his sculptures and he said they should appreciate what's there instead of regretting what's not.  I decided that's how I'd view this visit to Paris - appreciate all the places we visited and look forward to the next time for those we didn't.

This pisses me off! This phone number just called me on my cell phone: 406-219-2301. When I answered an automated vice told me I had problems with my credit card, and to speak to someone, press one. So I did and told the ass on the other end that I had no credit card at all, not with his stinking company or any other and to remove my number from their calling lists.

I wonder if there will be any feedback. I hope the jerks turn tail and run.

Nice review, BK!

I'm off to Toyland on an emergency run.

Received several exciting packages today. The new recording of Tiomkin's FALL OF THE ROMAN EMPIRE on the Prometheus label and a couple of DVDs, the films of which I've never seen and I thought I'd better catch up with them: Charlton Heston's ANTONY AND CLEOPATRA and SINCE YOU WENT AWAY - although annoyingly, this UK version doesn't contain the intermission. Both films ahve lengthy running times, so it will take me ages to get through them!

On the subject of credit cards I ordered a new TV online yesterday but the supplier later contacted me to say they couldn't obtain authorisation from the card issuing company. I phoned my bank and they said they had automatically blocked my card due to the high amount. After I confirmed that it was an authorised purchase by me, they unblocked the card. I don't know why they can't ask me in the first place whether I had purchased the item instead of instantly assuming possible fraud and making me go through hoops to get the card unblocked and get the supplier to re-process the order.

We had thought about going to Versailles today, but decided to stay in Paris for our last day.  I think we'll try again to get into Musee Rodin and also go to l'Orangerie.  And maybe shop a bit and get packed to head to Nuremberg tomorrow morning.

And with that...

You seem to have seen everything in Paris DR Ginny. Travel vibes for your journey to Nuremburg.

Thank you, DR Doug R!  We will see much of the same territory from our eastbound train tomorrow that we will see from our westbound cruise all next week.

Well, I guess the way to look at this is that it protects you. They know that if you were the one to place the order they'd hear from you. Better to be cautious before the charge than trying to clear it up afterwards.

DR Ginny - Bonne nuit.

-When I went to Australia, I ended up ditching my guide book the second day. Yes, there were lots of things I had bookmarked to see during my visit, but once I got there, I found that there was so much to see just within walking distance of my hotels. It took all the "pressure" of me to "do EVERYTHING", and it made for a much nicer and more relaxed(!) visit. I basically follow the same plan/non-plan whenever I travel somewhere new (or not new). I'll make note of a few "must-see" places, but then the left is basically left to chance and recommendations from the locals.

I am back from Toyland. All is well there.

I wish we had a really good Chinese restaurant in the neighborhood; the end of the Silk Road Palace was a major blow, and the second-rate place that moved into their space has now folded as well. It would be nive to have a good Mexican place close as well.

Yes, DR Jose, we're pretty flexible when we travel, too.  Even today, we left here intending to do 2 museums and ended up skipping L'Orangerie in order to pay our respects to Napoleon and to shop on Rue Cler.
