Hello Paris....

It's here.



I can almost taste it...it's that close.



My clothes are packed...



my shoes wrapped up...



my passport is tucked away in my bag.



I've charged my camera batteries up...



I have chosen the lenses i am bringing along.



I am leaving my computer home where it belongs as



i would like to spend every waking minute devouring the city.



I bought an international plan for my iphone so that i can at least



twitter the moments for you so that you can live



the journey as well.



My flight is overnight...so i arrive in Paris at 8am Wednesday morning.



I will spend three days in Paris with one of my closest friends...Kimberly.



We will also meet up with Simone..who I've yet to meet but cannot wait to.



I have a special compartment in my suitcase filled with treasures for my friends.



After three full days in Paris...Kim and I will head on the train down to Avignon...



...which lies in the heart of the south of France....



and spend three days wandering the streets in search of ...



ummm...



who knows.



Possibly a flea market...or maybe we'll get lost and find our own adventure.



Then i will leave Kim and head back up to Paris



for one more night before i fly back home.



To answer your question....



yes..i am bringing an extra suitcase for treasures.



anyhoo....



I am signing off.



Seriously...do you really want to read old posts from years past..



i didn't think so.



You can follow me on twitter { here }.

Till we meet again.

Hope you have a wonderful time in Paris - you won't be disappointed - it will definitely live up to your expectations. Make sure you visit the Sacre Coeur - fantastic views all over Paris and the famous Montmartre steps you see in photo's. The view of the Eiffel Tower from the Trocadero is great! Get on a tour bus to see the whole of the city as the ticket lasts for two days and you can get on and off where you choose plus it's a cheap way to travel around.
Hope you have a wonderful time!

Have a great time. Eat, Drink and be Merry. keep your $ close,pick pockets love americans. Parisians can speak english but they will appreciate if you try to speak french. The Louve is great as you know it is famous, but Musey de Orsay is a hidden treasure. Youll enjoy it more.Take a night tour on the river, its breath taking. It passes right by the Eiffel tower, Notre dame and all the great hot spots. Mulin Rouge is great, but watch out it is in the red light district! the hotels have package deals with limo and dinner. Paris has an open air flea market, I believe on Wed. and Sat. ask. Youll love it. Oh yes and DONT smile at the men... or they will follow you... unless you want them to :) they are very forward. Have a great trip!!!
