The Disneyland Paris 5K was their inaugural night run. It was scheduled for 8 pm; I was stuck in the last corral, Corral C, so I decided I had better get there early in the hopes of at least being in the front of the back. This was my POV at 6:39 pm. And this […]
Swell. Stuffy nose is full blown… actually just constantly blowing. Not to get too graphic but how much gunk can possibly BE in my schnoz? I’ve gone through a pack of travel tissues and then some and yet I’m still stuffy? Sending Mom home, albeit I raided her travel med kit to augment mine. I’ve […]
We made it an early day at Disneyland Paris for our last play day in the parks. Mom is flying back tomorrow and I’m off to the next leg of the running tour. Perhaps at my Airbnb in Paris I’ll have better wifi and can upload some photos. Yet even if that’s the case, unfortunately I […]
Here’s a big ol’ flashing red light warning sign. I’m kinda sick of people, especially Europeans who seemingly exist within much smaller personal space bubbles and thus think nothing of jostling, shoving, walking five across with a nary a care to those around them, and just generally crashing into my apparently obscenely American large personal […]
I’ve got a quick write up of the 5K last night done but uploading photos is an impossible task. So in the meantime here’s a photo from this morning’s inaugural Disneyland Paris 10k at their second annual race weekend. Note bene: I am a ‘stache-less Frenchman as my mustache fell out of my pocket on […]
A brief moment of being “that guy”… No way am I a “C” corral runner in a 5K…
Assuming this gets uploaded, headed to the expo this morning in anticipation of the Disneyland Paris 5K tonight. I’m bringing a “go bag” with me to change into running gear. Biggest conundrum this morning? Finalizing the Frenchman look. I must choose… wisely. Which is the ‘stache of a Frenchman?
Things are going… failingly. Mom’s putting up with a whole lot from me as I seem to go from breakdown to breakdown, embracing the insane and inane notion that if I just keep doing the same thing over and over I’ll eventually get a different result. I prefer to think of it as hiring a […]
Snapshots from the journey across the pond. Last looks at a Philadelphia family reunion: *** Safety begins with M-o-m: *** Overheard as inflight “dinner” was served: “I promise the food is better in Paris….” *** Self-medicating to induce off-hours sleep results in yet another failure. *** It was only a 6 and a half hour […]
Steve had a connection in Philly just like we did which made for an impromptu Hanna Family Reunion!
