Oh, It’s Tuesday: My Trip To Scotland and France
So a few people (okay, my sister) have demanded pics from my trips to Scotland and France. Scotland was wet and cold, which means it must be beyond awesome, b/c I had an amazing time. Pics from left to right: 1) me enjoying a 20yo Highland Park Scotch in the converted library bar at one of the many castles we visited. 2) My lovely host Fiona explaining haggis over a plate of delicious homemade haggis. 3) Fiona’s son Michael and I in front of a tardis police box.
And then here’s France. Pics from left to right. First Row: 1) Ran down Dominic Pignon from Amelie and everything Jeunet on my very first night in France. I had been there maybe three hours! 2) Mmm, macarons! Second Row: 3) My wonderful hosts, Gudrun from “Secret Life of an Expat” and her husband, M. 4) Shopping at the Chanel flagship store for a big thank you gift for my MIL. Gotta make babysitting Betty for a week worth her while, and I’m sure the super swanky experience will make it into a future novel. Third Row: 5) Three kinds of escargot. Mmm! 6) Finishing off a Moroccan meal with mini desserts and mint tea. 7) Gudrun’s 15 month neighbor made me miss Betty sooooo much!
glad you had a wonderful time. and yes, mil deserves a nice gift.

I can't believe the only picture we have of the two of us has Dominique Pignon in the middle! I guess it's not a total tragedy… :D What did MIL think of her "parfum"?

Hey, did you know that Dominique Pignon is also in Alien Resurrection? So cool you met him. Especially after we met that strange look-a-like waiter in Dalhousie Castle!
I know, right! And yes, he actually referenced Alien Resurrection when I told him I was from LA!
