Breakey Blips

By ElizabethB

Back where it all started

It's official, this is the city where Mr Breakey and I fell in love back in December 1995.
It was great to be back, letting our kids discover a little piece of the city for themselves, (although my daily step counter suggests that with an average of 20,000 steps - we covered a fair bit of ground in 3 days. )
The stair climb up the Eiffel Tower (all 688 steps) was worth the climb, as the fine clear weather gave a fantastic view for miles around.
We made a special trip to Monmartre, to the Sacre Coeur. There, we lit a candle and joined in a moment of remembering for Mr Breakey senior, who died on Wednesday this week.
This evening, we caught up with some old friends, who we knew in Perth 7 years ago. - Our respective offspring have grown up splendidly!
So, tomorrow with our bags packed, we shall head off again. 4 of us home to Geelong and one back to Scotland for the funeral of my dear, thoughtful and intelligent father in law.
