Bonjour from Paris. We arrived Friday morning and rendevou'd with Savannah at the airport. After checking in to our hotel, we ventured out for the Eiffel Tower via the Metro. I am in love and awe of this train system, and the tube in London as well. Both systems put BART to shame.

We approached the tower from the end with the peace monument and heard the sounds of a live band playing nearby...after about 3 seconds Savannah said it sounded like a worship band. A few minutes later she and I wandered over to check it out while Craig was on a call, and SURE ENOUGH this group of youngsters were singing "worship" songs in english..."Jesus, you're the only one I can love"...a freckled young teen and her pre-teen friend approached us with flyers and tracts---"we're just here spreading the word...there are some really great camps this summer, with lots of activities, really fun activities." Miss Freckles is from Florida, her friend from New York, here on a "mission trip" no doubt. Just there in Paris to spread the word. Sweet.

I shook off my embarassment and proceeded to enjoy l'eiffel....
