This trip to France all started with Bunny wanting to expand her knowledge of the French language.\u00a0 She really wanted to take a French immersion class from Claudine Alberti a language professor who teaches language immersion out of her home in Montbard France.\u00a0 The only opening Claudine had for the 2015 year was from Nov 8th thru the 14th.\u00a0 Unfortunately those dates were to close to the Thanksgiving holiday to make for a worthwhile trip to France for the week long French immersion program.\u00a0 Bunny stayed in contact with Claudine hoping for a cancellation.\u00a0 Then in late August 2015 Claudine contacted Bunny with the news.\u00a0 She did have a cancellation for a week in mid October 2015.\u00a0 I took us only 3 days to confirm that she would take the week and get plane reservations.\u00a0 Then began the process of planning our Europe trip 2015.<\/p>\n
We found the best and cheapest flights were nonstop on Condor airlines from Portland to Frankfurt.\u00a0 We chose a starting date and an ending date with the week of French immersion somewhere in the middle of the trip.\u00a0 From there we began plotting possible destinations and places of interest we wanted to hit.\u00a0 From that we developed a route map and the process of locating places to stay began.\u00a0 Bunny kept saying that “this is the fun part”.\u00a0 I was glad to let her have all the fun.<\/p>\n
This all happened so fast that we really kept thinking something was going to go wrong or there was something gonna pop up to put the trip in doubt.\u00a0 But as the dates got closer it seemed as though this trip was meant to be.\u00a0 Everything fell into place and before long we were just one week from leaving portland for one month.\u00a0 I think it was around that time that we started to realize that a month is a long time to be away from home.\u00a0 But plans were set and airfares purchased … there was no backing out now….We were going to Europe for a month.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
