What would your dream trip to Paris include? I had a dream trip, told Celine Glon of Et Voila Paris…read moreabout it, and she made it happen. I had very specific ideas. I'm a writer and have just finished the first draft of a mystery novel that involves the life of Georges Bizet, composer of the opera, Carmen. I wanted to go to Paris and various places there to see where Bizet lived and worked so I could add such settings to my book. Celine made an itinerary for me, got me wonderful guides to drive me to these places and to tell me about their histories and even explore with me. NOT ONLY THAT, Celine got me introduced to people knowledgeable about Bizet, and she got me into places where people normally can't go. For example, there is a house in the town of Bougival near Paris where Bizet lived when he wrote Carmen. Celine got me a private tour of this privately owned house (not open to the public) AND an introduction to a board member of a society that promotes art and artists as part of the memory of Georges Bizet. She also got me introduced to a gentleman who speaks excellent English and who is extremely knowledgeable about classical music and opera so he could go with me to meet with the board member and see the home. There are many other things I could mention about the Bizet part of the trip, like my private tour of the Opera Comique (where Carmen opened in 1875) and lunch with the Comique's dramaturge. Again, the Opera Comique is not open to the public for such tours, but Celine arranged it all. Celine also booked me private guides to take me other places just for fun, such as Chantilly, which has the biggest collection of French paintings after the Louvre, and Malmaison, the home of Josephine and Napoleon Bonaparte. I could go on and on, but that would make this review too long. I'll close by saying that I would recommend Celine to anyone, including my closest family and friends. I trust her totally to come up with customized trips that will fit any needs. I highly recommend her. She has a million connections and I can see she is an expert in the art of making people's dreams come true in Paris and all over France.

Davenport Jail, Cabrillo Hwy CA Sat 8/28/21…read more By virtue of curiosity I ventured around the Davenport Roadhouse and discovered this old Davenport Jail near The Slow Coast Wine Bar by Beauregard. This tiny facility holding two cells was built in the year 1914, I'm truly surprised. Obviously it saw little use in this peaceful community. I can hardly wait to tell you how cute this little jailhouse is! As local tails say it, the jail once held two boys from San Mateo, overnight, for stealing horses. It also held local drunks on occasion, till they sobered up. In 1936 new Front Street jail had opened in Santa Cruz, so naturally there wasn't much use for the Davenport Jail any more. There's a Davenport Cement plant nearby. The building is made out of Santa Cruz Portland Cement produced at the plant. In its present use, the jail became a museum of history of Davenport and the north coast region. It has been dedicated as historic landmark on June 21, 2014 by the Ancient and Honorable Order of E Clampus Vitus Credo Quia Absurdum El Viceroy Marques De Branciforte Chapter 1797. When you're driving down Hwy 1, you might want to stop by and take a look. It's a few steps down from the Davenport Roadhouse. Great food and drinks if you so choose! Cheers, enjoy!
