Happy New Year!

Happy New Year!

Happy New Year from the Monkeys in Paris!  Unfortunately we have no pictures to share of the Continent ringing it in;  it was foggy and damp here in Paris and there weren't any fireworks to dazzle us.  

In 2009 we took a few minor scrapes (broken collarbone, pneumonia), lost some family and friends (June, Terri, Dylan), and missed the rest of our family and friends because of the distance.  But on the whole, living in our little bubble in the City of Light, it was a good year. We are lucky. The economy has not been friendly to many of our relatives and friends back home and the world continues to prove it is a dangerous place. The Monkeys can only hope that we've turned the corner and 2010 is a great year for everyone.  We will certainly do all we can to make it a fantastic year!
