In July, my friend from Red Pine came to stay with us for four days en route to Canada from Australia. I unfortunately didn't get to spend as much time as I would have liked with Liane as it happened to be the one week that I was actually working full time, but she managed to keep herself busy, and have an adventure or two at the same time.
My favorite story is of her trip to Versailles. She got up bright and early to make it out there before the crowds. Four hours later, after some bad advice from various employees at the train station, and a couple of broken down metros, she finally made it to the castle with the new friends she made on the way. Liane had stopped to help a group of Korean tourists who were just as lost as she was, and they ended up spending the day todgether at Versailles (one of whom had studied English at Carleton University in Ottawa!). Liane's version is obviously much funnier, especially when she told it in her frazzled state upon getting back into Paris, so I'll just leave you with the photo of her and her new friends. Maybe she'll write the good version in the comments??? Pretty please???
Thanks Liane for sending the pics! It was great to see you!
