On my way!
Off on the big trip by China Southern at 11am. 9 hour flight to Canton (can’t spell the Chinese name!) in new plane, very comfortable. Over 4 hour wait for connecting flight to Paris but the lounge is very nice, a lot better than the other Chinese and Vietnam airlines! Paris flight is a biggy, around 14 hours I think but can sleep on the way to arrive fresh around 6.30am at CDG airport. Then I wait for Jonesy whose flying in from Singapore and we travel down by TGV together to Avignon. Really looking forward to meeting everyone and painting for 10 days all around Provence. Here’s a photo of last years group posing at the Chateau…
