    I have been catching up on old runtz I missed... I felt like making a few comments on this one, so will post this solve.

    @M&A, I just saw your post asking about my trip. I was in Paris, Lisbon, Algarve coast, southern Spain, Barcelona, all new destinations to me! Our daughter , son in law, and granddaughter were with us for 10 days. So much good food, scenery, and old buildings! Hard to pick a favourite, but the grand boulevards of Paris are amazing.

    @BobK, I noticed flights to Mallorca, maybe I will go there some day. The beaches in Spain & Portugal are fabulous!
