I leave for Paris in … 4 days, 22 hours and 46 minutes. Not that I’m counting at all. I’ve done a round of packing and am now refining: taking things out, putting things in I previously forgot, swapping things… it’s been fun being able to spend time sitting with my packing decisions and having time to change things. I’ve made a reservation to go to D’Orsay museum and see some of the impressionist art; and another reservation for all of us to go to the summit of the Eiffel Tower. I plan to drink champagne up there 😀. A friend told me where to go for a beautiful view of the tower, so I’m going to go there as well.

On Friday after we’ve all arrived, we’re going to one of the many Christmas markets and to Shakespeare and Company. This plan just happened today! Jury is out on the weather. Moms weather app says it is supposed to rain the whole time, mine says it won’t. I guess we’ll find out when we get there!
