Two successful days...
... Well, it seems pretty amazing, but we have had two successful days in a row. What this means is that things went as planned, or better than planned! I don't really know if this is because of good planning, or because we have learned to plan for the worst case scenario. Really, it doesn't matter...
Yesterday was successful because we managed to stick to our driving itinerary (we were trying to get to Paris today), and the campground that was supposed to be open was open! We got showers (kind of key, after skiing and sleeping in parking lots for two nights)!
Today was successful because we DID get to Paris today, AND we completed our task that we thought might take until Monday... We picked up the crates that we shipped from Seattle. This was worrysome, because the email that told us they had arrived had lots of complicated instruction (in French, of course) for how to deal with the customs, and there was a lot of documentation required. However, the paperwork we used for our visa worked here too, and we now have our own skis!
... Oh, and if you can't tell from my exhuberant tone, we also have a fairly fast wifi connection at the campground we're staying at...
