France Day 3

May 26, 2002

Today we did our own thing. No tours. Just us and a map.

France Day 2

Evans had a great idea and signed us up for this cab cruise type of thing. It involves a tour of Paris in a cab, dinner, boat cruise, and some live show.

France Day 1

Paris is one of those places you only dream about visiting. I've often wondered what it was like. In the movies there is often a violin playing gently in the background while everyone around is holding hands. I just got back from the best 4 day weekend in Paris and I can safely say... it is EXACTLY like that! Except with the addition of hot dogs and horrible yet funny drivers.

Evans took me to a travel agent where we booked the train and hotel for us. I couldn't believe this was happening!

Castles and Dates

We finally got some time off together. Guard duty is slowly dying. We're now doing 12 hours on and 12 hours off with a 2 day break after 4 days of work. Pretty nice :)

Mainz in March

Not much going on over here thanks to Guard Duty. The other units are pulled out already and have paid civilians guarding there territory. Not us! Our First Sergeant decided to volunteer us to keep doing it instead of our actual mission. We also have the opportunity to get new furniture in the barracks like all the other buildings. Nope. We have guard duty.
