Jump to the full entry & travel map Paris, France May 15, 2008 Thank goodness Mary met me at CDG, although we did get our wires crossed. She waited 90 minutes for me to show up, and I waited 90 minutes for her to show up, separated only by a thin wall...neither of us knew. Finally she walked around to see the baggage claim area to find me fast asleep in a chair, waiting for her. ...
