Re: Who's going to MOTM 10/31-11/3, 2013?

Now I'm back from Paris, I'm starting to get excited for MOTM! [smilie=battingeyes.gif] Less than 4 weeks now!

Re: Who's going to Paris? September 28th La Cigale

We arrive from Canada on Friday morning. Get to hotel, have lunch and a nap, see some Parisian stuff, have supper, go to a play. Nos Femmes, starring one of our favourite actors, Daniel Auteuil. Have a good sleep, do some shopping and sightseeing, maybe meet up with BNers at Hard Rock, nap?, dining,...

Re: Who's going to MOTM 10/31-11/3, 2013?

Hey, PHolks,
Does anyone know about scuba in Key West?
I'll be there a couple of days before the main event and I'd like to do some diving. I'd need a buddy, and some recommendations.

Re: Who's going to Paris? September 28th La Cigale

I know it's unreasonable to go to Paris and not walk much --I lived there!--but I'm just getting the cast off my foot tomorrow and apparently still have to be cautious for 6 more weeks (which will end about Hallowe'en, when I'm in Key West). We will have a French-numbered cell phone with us. I would...

Re: Who's going to Paris? September 28th La Cigale

Hard Rock? Paris has a Hard Rock? That's bizarre. :roll:
I see by the map that it's some distance from La Cigale, at least for me with my uncertain foot.

We do have seats, and while I want to be part of the pre-concert crowd, I'm uncertain about walking far or standing much.

Other options? Anyone?

Re: Who's going to MOTM 10/31-11/3, 2013?

Cat and I have wished to make MOTM for the past several years, but the date has always coincided with our annual Miramar Beach Burn, a neighborhood beach Bon fire, music and gumbo party that we have hosted for ten years. But we are passing the torch after this one on October 27th. We have made our ...

We must have a photo :lol: :lol:

Good question. Anyone know much about the lay of the land? I will have Duckett with me, and No Parrot, who can be the photographer (he's tall and doesn't want to be associated with us crazy PHs).

It's official: I'm really going to MOTM 2013!
Flying to Key West on Monday, October 28, staying in a house with some Vermont Frozen Fins until Saturday, moving to Harborside Motel, leaving on Tuesday morning.
Yes, I'm excited, but PARIS comes first---next week!

Re: Remittance man question

It's quite an old concept. The British colonies had lots of them! Wikipedia says: In 19th century British usage, a remittance man is an emigrant, often to a British colony, supported or assisted by payment of money from their paternal home. As a general term remittance man or remittance woman could ...

I'll be proud to take the Duck to Paris. There, he will become a Canard!
