Day 4

I had a dinner last night at the Darlington House with a lovely group of a dozen folks including 3 members of the French Assembly. It gave me the opportunity to practice my very limited French, oui?

It was a beautiful dinner with 6 courses (including a cheese course - always a good thing). The only problem is that it took everything I had to stay awake. Literally, I was falling asleep from the time they offered me the sweetbread appetizer (I passed - I'm not that much of a Francophile) to the pumpkin cheesecake (tasty, but not as good as Mutti's recipe).

Got home a little before midnight and actually slept through the night for the first time in 4 days. Vive la France.
