Flight to Paris - 8 June 2013

Lunch at TCC

Usually whenever I travel, it will always be busy weeks leading up to my flight. This year it is no exception. Until the Friday night, only after I knocked off from work could I feel that I was going on a holiday. I was busy with newsletter, annual report and an upcoming media event for work. However I am indeed thankful for the break, especially to my dream county, one of my top choice of travel holidays. Yes, I was heading for France for the next 2 weeks for holidays. Did the final packing of my luaggage on Friday.

On 8 June 2013, I attended Novena in the morning praying for smooth trip. Did the 9 times Novena for the past weeks, praying for family, work and trip. Then it was to the optician to tighten my spectacles before lunch time at TCC.

A cool drink with mushroom spaghetti

Evening Mass at St Theresa Church at 6pm

After a home cooked meal, it was time to head to the airport. T3 R10 was where the Dynasty group met for our flight to Paris at 9.30am. We were informed to meet our local guide Henry at Paris De Gaulle. Gina and I checked in and we headed to the lounge for light snacks.

The playful Pat all set for her trip

Morning breakfast

Yes, we finally arrived in Paris at 720am. This is a gal who barely slept on the plane. Thankfully still have the energy and smile to last to the day. We were met by our guide Henry, who took really good care of us. So the group of 22 passengers were all set for the Grand Tour of France. Stay tuned for more travel adventures of France.

Poulet

Located at Vivo #01-175, Poulet is definitely a place worth a visit. I met Su-Ann my ex-colleague whom I haven't met for over a year for dinner. It was a great catch up. Check out the dishes we ordered.

Saute Mushrooms with egg ($7.80)

Prawn Fritters ($7.80)

Poulet Roti Half Slab ($15.80) - Tender and the sauce heightens the taste

Su-Ann & Pat

Escargot ($8.90) - Yummy

Dinner Time

All smiles with great company and good food

Panna Cotta ($6.80) - This proved to be a disappointment (more like almond jelly). Can give this a miss.

The highlight of the evening - Ice cream with cream puffs ($7.80) - Thumbs up. Must Try.

Desserts

Cover Girl for Poulet for the evening. (Grin)
