We made it to Paris!

Group One arrived in Paris after a direct 10 hour flight from LAX to London. We changed planes in London and flew 1 hour to Paris. We claimed our luggage and met our tour resource person Sophie Higgins at the airport. We took two luxury coaches to the Novatel, our host hotel and checked in around 4:30pm, Paris time. It was a smooth check-in and we are sharing the hotel with several other performing groups. Many of us liked being able to settle and rest a little after such a long trip. A small group of parents and students took a short trip to a large shopping center across from the hotel by our tour resource person to pick-up some in-room snacks, water and soft drinks. Each room does include a small refrigerator, in-room safe and hot water pot.

Group Two arrived in Paris 7:37pm this evening and is at baggage claim.  We are all now safely in Paris.  This group is led by Mr. Shuler and Sally Larsen.  They should be arriving at the hotel around 9:00 pm. this evening.

The two groups will reunite this evening for dinner and an orientation. Weather is cool in the mid-40's, cloudy with some fog. Evenings will be in the low 30's. The group is excited to finally be in Paris and anxious to eat dinner as one group and be ready for a long Saturday including a bus tour, rehearsal and evening performance.

I posted a few picture from our RCMC Thursday morning check-in. More to come....
