We landed yesterday morning at Charles DeGaulle airport outside of Paris. The flight over was uneventful except for the one hour delay due to software glitches in the brand new airplane. After 50 minutes of guys in neon vests looking for the offending sensors the pilot announced that they were going to shut down and ‘restart’. It was the first time that I have ever been in a completely dark completely silent airplane. But just like my laptop that was all that was needed and off we flew.
Turns out that it is not possible to ride your bike out of CDG airport so we took a train for three stops and then rode our bikes to our glamping campground.
Today, May 1st, is Labor Day in France and everything is closed, well everything except the automatic baguette machine and the local beekeeper selling honey. Bread and honey for lunch.

Was the baguette edible?
How about some pictures of a bike shop... you have been in France for how long and yet, not one picture of a bicycle shop??? What kind of trip do you have planned here. I hope the bikes had a safe trip too. Can't wait to see your next posting. If you need some addresses of a few bikes shops in Paris I would be more than happy to assist with a google search. Safe travels my friend.
