That was beautiful. Even more so because I could not understand the words. So I could appreciate the voice even more.

LOL. Since you are apparently an Alien Species, does that mean you will turn into one of those critters if we make you angry?
Is it just a vacation trip, or are you going to visit relatives?
I'm afraid I'm not very adventurous when it comes to food. Just give me the same old everyday type food I'm used to, please.
Too bad you didn't have time for the botanical gardens. Now THAT'S my kind of trip.So we have been for a walk to explore this area. The residents probably have a love-hate relationship with sporting events which they can’t escape!

Our hotel is right next to Stade Jean Bouain home to Stade Français Football Club which is next to Parc des Princes and the Paris Tennis Club (not Roland Garros which belongs to the French Tennis Federation)
Parc des Princes is home to Paris St Germain football club ... PSG is massively famous... and is built over the Paris ring road called the Boulevard Periphique. It used to be the French Rugby Union’s home ground too, but now only hosts Rugby Sevens tournaments as the full international side has moved to the newer Stade de France which has nothing to do with, and is nowhere near, the Stade Français football club previously mentioned.

Confused? We were. It’s taken us ages to work all this out!
The other side of our hotel is a mews (stable block) for a long since gone grand house which is now being converted into hospitality and conference facilities for Roland Garros across the road. Behind the mews is a large botanical garden with huge greenhouses originally found King Louis XV which we didn’t have time to explore.
LOL! I always thought there was something a little off about you!!
Wa-a-a-a-y back in the '40s or maybe even the '30s anti-nazi actress Marlene Dietrich sang this song. When she came to America, of course she sang it in English AND German. It has always been one of my favorites. I am going to try to figure out how to save this little Sabine video so I can refer back to it occasionally.
It's never happened before, but if I was a turtle in a past life that would make a lot of sense
But I do suspect there's others of my kind in this here dark room.....

Morning.
I did mine a while back and it came back as
100% unknown
I showed my husband an old picture a few weeks ago. He looks at me and says "you never told me you were a cheerleader in highschool!"
My response was "I have never been a cheerleader- that's a picture of my mother"
To say the resemblance is uncanny would have been an understatement. I was a little confused myself until I recognized an aunt who was also in the photo.[emoji33]
You haven't met our leader. @Tidgy's Dad started this place for us. He may be one of the "others" of which you speak. He's taking a little sabbatical at the moment and taking care of some of his paleontologist duties. He hopes to be back here in the Fall. But hopefully he'll be back in time to start the T.O.R.T.O.I.S.E. That's sort of like the Secret Santa that the rest of the Forum does for Christmas.

Nah, that just makes you a critter loving person who happens to be unafraid of getting wet!
Poor daughter. Give her a big hug like the little cats do please. I hope she feels better soon.
Do you finally got the travel bug of Linda ????

Daughter loved the picture
We’re at the airport starting our journey home. The luggage belts aren’t working so they can’t check bags in right now [emoji849] Fingers crossed for a man with a spanner!
Our lunch venue was a beautiful building over 100 years old. It’s a shame it was raining as there are beautiful views from the terrace.

Update: man with spanner has fixed the luggage belt and our suitcase has started it’s journey to London. Hopefully we won’t be too far behind. As is the way of such things we now have an hour of hanging round waiting to get on a plane

You were a turtle [emoji33] [emoji33] Not a ninja turtle? And as to the others here not sure about them being turtles, however my kids reckon that I MUST have been a tortoise previously. In fact they reckon I am still one.
