Dijon, one of the cities in France, was the destination of our mid-week get away. The city,which is well known for its mustard,is a 3-hour train ride from Genève via Lausanne. As I've mentioned in my previous post ,this was my first time to visit the city. We arrived mid-day to a gloomy surrounding and headed to Quick, sort of Jollibee here. Yet,the real treat was in the old town. Walking on the paved street for me was like being transported to another era. Aside from Musée des Beaux-Arts Dijon, we were able to visit Cathédrale de Saint Bénigne and the Notre Dame de Dijon. However,due to time constraint we were not able to visit other places. Our evening meal was in Le Théâtre des Sens, a small but cozy restaurant and where I've tried escargot. Yes, I did and blame it on the kir! Our dinner was really good,the waiter was very cheery and accomodating. We stayed at the Hotel Des Ducs where we spent the rest of the night watching crime scene investigation. Ah! the joy of havin...

You have 'Finish French Course' on the list twice. What a neat idea, but I'm creeping up on 44... I'm not sure there's a lot of things I'm willing to do 44 times.
Thanks for stopping by on my SITS day.

The list of 38 is a great idea. I think that's probably a good way of harnessing your energy about the birthday. Happy birthday and all the best with it!

Oh - why did you have to remind me as well? I only have a few days left to go before reaching the same age... Maybe I should adopt your idea with things to do ?!

belated happy birthday! you have an amazing list of things to do and I hope you will really be able to accomplish everything. I noticed you put in "finish French lessons" twice, was that intentional?
