New car

 We went to London to pick up our new car, it was our first time to drive across on the Eurotrain.

                                    

In Guildford, lots of Christmas shopping happening

Dinner with a princess

 Dinner with a princess..

We were invited to a gala event. It was to help bring medical supplies to a village in Lebanon.  

It is a charity the princess is very involved with.

 We ate at a beautiful chateau in the tasting room

Sat next to an Australian, we chatted all night.        

The princess of Bourbon, who wears her crown when she leaves the country. The French 

still have a thing against royalty. She sat at the table next to us.

London Birthday

In honor of my birthday and the fact that I LOVE to taste food. Michael took me on

This was a Les Miserable year. Tatiana read the book, then we went

to Paris to walk some of the streets in the book. 

We watched two different versions of the movie.

Now we are finishing it off with the musical.
