Champagne

Filed under: France — stephane @ 9:22 pm

I went to Bouzy near Reims to get some Champagne for friends (and for me as well ;-) ). I went back to Barnaut house. I managed to bring back 52 bottles which are a mix of brut, extra-brut, cuv鬠mill鳩me, ros頡nd sec. In short all available one. I did not have the opportunity to taste the Mill鳩me before and was pleasantly surprised so I took a couple for me :mrgreen: .

Incredible Adventures

I recently came across several web sites that are sell ‘adventure’ packages out of the ordinary. I was telling myself I had to do those things soon. I would really like it. But I will have to first try to get more money ;-)

Insurance, another day in Paradise

Filed under: General,Round-The-World-2003 — stephane @ 12:33 am

Just went to my insurer to cancel my household insurance, they did not support it for more than 3 months outside the normal country residency anyway and the excess for lost items was $125, which is way too high.

I also downgraded my car insurance as I will not use it for a year and will remain into a garage.

It’s always fun to talk to insurers. You speak to one person one day they tell you black, the next day you have someone else and you are told white.

It’s beautiful !

YES ! I do have my long awaited Fujitsu P2120. It’s amazingly lightweight and the screen is beautifully sharp. I just bought a caselogic neoprene sleeve that fits it like a glove. :mrgreen: It’s not lightning speed, but hey that’s not the point of this baby, it’s a least faster than my old Celeron 450 desktop anyway.

Thanks to Laurent for all the bad work of shipping it to me from the US to avoid paying an additional $400 taxes ! Whoooohoooo ! :-)
