Aloha, friends and fam! Greetings from Paris. This one has gotten off to a dreadful start, with a Gregory-medical-issue & ER day at the hospital delaying our entire plan. Rather than boarding our ship 8 days ago in Lisbon, we had to delay all our flights, and come to Paris to regroup. Have been here a few days, and will take the train to Rouen tomorrow, to catch up with the ship, eight days in. Such is life. This was the original cruise itinerary, we just will miss all the great stuff along the Portuguese and Spanish coasts. Grrrrrr.
