We got to the airport three and a half hours early driving through the rain to make sure we wouldn't be late. Went through security withouth a hitch (well they did search one of my bags... but they didn't find anything), unlike when we went to Italy in December. We passed our time enjoying the cushy seats and free food (and libations) in the Envoy Lounge.

Boarded the plane, and enjoyed our mimosas... one of the perks of flying First, ahem Envoy, Class. The attendants gave us our menus and we choose our entrees and beverages. We had a lovely salad of mixed field greens with breaded goat cheese. I had the duck breast with oriental barbeque sauce and Tom had a decent Chablis with his macadamia-encrusted fish. This was followed by a cheese plate and some dainty pastries.

I slept well on our cushy chairs... so much room, my feet don't even touch the ground; Tom can stretch his long legs all the way out and not touch the seat in front! He watched some movie... and miraculously with the flying over the time zones and stuff, about three hours later it was time for a breakfast of yogurt with muesli and a croissant, then our descent to Roissy Charles deGaulle airport.
