Next stop......London?

Storms have ravaged the southeast yesterday into today.  Our thoughts and prayers go to everyone dealing with the loss of loved ones.  The storms moved into the New York area which has caused havoc with flight schedules.  We were supposed to connect through JFK for our flight to Paris.  Instead, we get to fly directly to London and then onto Paris.  However, we're now flying into Orly Airport instead of Charles de Gaulle.  After a frantic phone call to Paris, I was able to connect with Vincent who is driving us from the airport to our apartment.  He was very nice and was able to make the change to his schedule.  Nothing like arriving at one airport when your transportation is at the other one.  Crisis averted.

So this means we get to travel through London on the biggest day they've seen in 30 years -- the royal wedding of William and Kate.  Mom is giddy with excitement at that prospect.  If we stay on schedule, we'll get to Paris by 1:30 PM local time on Friday -- only about 3 hours later than our original itinerary.  Fingers crossed!!
