Loire Valley Day One

This year, my family went to the Loire Valley in France for our vacation. Austin said it was the best trip he's ever taken. Among other things. If you're interested in checking it out, follow the link below. It's a six day tour, but we didn't quip too much one of them, so I combined the notes.

Loire Valley Trip

Three of our five flights were delayed . . .

Me: What causes delays?

Austin: Weather, pilots. Runways of unicorns.

Later, Austin: If I saw a bunch of unicorns, I'd stop. 

 

I mentioned all the walking we were doing at the terminal in Canada.

Me: I'm glad I didn't take my walk this morning. We're putting in a lot of steps here.

Austin: The only extra steps I'm taking are away from you and your mom.

Austin: The urinals are flooded. Gross.

Me: I'm sorry you couldn't use the bathroom before take off.

Austin: I still went. I had to go. I just didn't enjoy the go.

Me, singing the Charmin commercial: We all have to go. Might as well enjoy the go.

Austin: Sir, can you tell me where the garbage is so I can dispose of my wife and mother-in-law?

Miraculously, we arrived to our hotel in time. And after all the fun in Canada, Austin felt entitled to a liberal drink.

Austin, regarding drinking too much: I might embarrass myself.

Me: You don't need alcohol to do that.

Guide: If it's wine and cheese you want--

Austin: I whine a lot.

Austin, re guide driving the minibus through the narrow gate: Is she a jedi?

Me: By the end of the week, I'll want to kill my family.

Austin: That's every week.

Austin: You don't want to offend people that don't know you.

Mom: Oh, I don't know about that.

Our guide took a picture of us and unfortunately, Austin and I were commiserating about our appearances.

Me: We look fat in the pic.

Austin: We'll delete it.

Me: Don't do that.

Austin: It's the first day. We'll have plenty of time for good pics. We don't need to keep one pic with bad photography.

Me: I'm not sure that's the photography.
