C'est Moi. This is me, Donna....and this is the photo journal of my trip to Paris 2004. This trip was especially fun because I had different friends coming into town at different times, which made for lots of interesting outings and happenings. |

The Other Prominent Figures from My Vacation They are (in order of appearance): |
|
| First off, my good friend and dining partner, Charles from California was meeting me the first day. We dined our way through many innovative places. Charles had met Robin before but not Tracy. |

| And a new face was introduced, as I found out that Cindy, who lives in my hometown of Grand rapids, Michigan, was going to be in Paris. We hooked up the 2nd day I was in Paris andthen Cindy joined in on some of our outings. Cindy had not met any of us before, now knows us all! |

| In the midst of all this my Parisian friend Annie joined in with us for some good times, eating, sight seeing and we even went to her apartment for dinner one night. Annie had met Robin and Tracy before but not Charles. |

| And to round things out, I met Jerry Rosenberg on the plane. So he and his wife Corlis are visible in the photos at the Morrocan restaurant and again at a cocktail party in my hotel room. And of course the Rosenberg's had not met any of us before they met me on the plane. |
