Took the TGV from Gare du Nord, Mary was quite impressed!!
Arrived early in Arras to see the town before our guided tour of Vimy Ridge starting at 1:00pm. Well ran into our guide on arrival and he said there was a wee bit of a problem and that our tour wouldn't start until 2pm. Well we walked around Arras but it was a Monday and most everything was closed either because it was Monday or they were on their "annual" vacation starting in July/August.
Well Ian didn't show at 2pm and had to give him a call, he finally arrived at 2:40. Thankfully Vimy Ridge was everything Mary thought it would be. Ian was an okay guy after all but I was certainly worried thinking that it might be a waste of a day!!!!
