On hold

For the past three for four days, I've been scrambling to put together an emergency trip to N.C. I've had trouble finding affordable flights, getting my credit card accepted by reservation services, and getting through to U.S. phone numbers from here in Saint-Aignan. I've run into one roadblock after another. But now it's done. I'll be leaving in a couple of days, if all goes well.


I'll write more about the details of all that went wrong in arranging the trip, but later. Meanwhile, don't expect a lot more here for the foreseeable future than some pictures I took out in the Renaudière vineyard last Friday.

  3. I'm sorry you have to make an emergency trip. I hope it the travel end of it goes well and that you don't have delays or other bugs. These emergency trips are stressful -- I had to make a few for my parents -- but they have to be done. My thoughts are with you.

  11. Why is it than when you try to arrange an urgent trip, technical problems throw rocks in your road? May the rest of your journey go smoothly.
