Paris and back to England

Well if you have read my parents' blog you will know that we had a hard time getting into Paris. I'm not going to talk too much about it, but basically there was a big snow storm and we were stuck in the worst traffic jam in the history of Greater Paris. Read my parents blog for details. Other than that our time in Paris was good. Some of the highlights were, visiting the Louvre, the Museum of Modern Art and the Christmas market on the Champs Elysees. With a few days to spare before our ferry to England we headed to Arras. If you have been following the blog you will know that the last time we were in Arras we did not have the best time. It was no different this time. We tried to find a computer to use but were told we had to come back with our Mastercard in 2 hours. So we went to the Christmas market and decided to go skating on the rink that they had set up. The skating was fun but when we were done and undoing our skates, Mhari forgot that her skates were undone, stood up and hurt her knee. At first it hurt a lot and then it slowly got a bit better she could put a bit of weight on it during the walk to the car but then it just slowly got worse. That night it was so bad that we took her to the hospital. The doctor said that she thought it was a fracture but she had to come back tomorrow to visit the specialist. He said that it was not a fracture but that she had popped her knee out instead and should imobolize it for three weeks. Then he looked at it further and said that in three weeks time she should get an MRI because of possible ligament damage. Luckily, we are in England now, safe and sound with our family.
