The Scramble

We're in the scramble of getting ready to go. As the time to departure grows shorter the lists of things to do seems to grow longer. We've completed a trial run at packing, arranged for train tickets in France, and are hoping to dodge any strikes while we travel.

Although I lived in France on and off for six years, I never visited Lorraine. Susie and I have learned a little about Metz, including--remarkably enough--that there's a restaurant called "Le Tex Mex." We're looking forward to catching our breaths and and learning about life in la region Messine through time and exploration.
