Hi all
I have pre-booked the optional excursion as I don't expect to see Paris at night again and it means I won't have to take too much cash with me. I expect we will find each other at Ebbsfleet as it is much smaller than an airport. Not sure if we will get luggage labels but they are a good way of finding fellow travellers.
I hope you first timers do not get too nervous about your first trip. It's now just over a year since I did my first trip to the USA and I have just come back from the Canadian Rockies tour. It is a very safe way to travel alone but you are never on your own unless you want to be.
