The Last Day!

Ah, my last full day in Paris!  Tomorrow I leave at 10:30 in the morning, and I will arrive in Los Angeles at 5:00 p.m. Thursday.  My last day was a bit uneventful, since it was raining cats and dogs most of the day.  I did go to the stores nearby for last minute gift shopping, and of course I had to organize and pack my things.  Fortunately, Jason was able to leave work early today so we went into Paris for one last dinner.

We had a very delicious Italian meal, walked around a bit, took one last look at the Seine River at dusk, and hopped back on the train for Montevrain.

Remember the Reims champagne tasting trip a few weeks back?  Jason had bought a bottle to take back with us, so we decided tonight would be the perfect night to enjoy it.  So here I sit, enjoying champagne, and contemplating packing up my computer gear for the long trip home.  I’ve had a fantastic time in Paris, as you’ve probably noticed.  Some of the highlights of the trip: Bastille Day at the Eiffel Tower was naturally a knock-out, the top of Sacre-Coeur Cathedral, the Rodin Museum, the trip to Normandy, the Pere-Lachaise Cemetery, baguettes and wine galore, steak with french fries, of course the chocolate pyramids, and getting to meet and hang out with Blake and Andrea.  Naturally, the number one highlight of the trip was being able to travel and be with Jason each day for the last five weeks.  Paris has been wonderful, but coming home will be just as sweet.  With that said, I’m going to pack up the computer and officially end this blog.  Thanks for reading and for all of your encouragement.  I’ll see you at home very soon.
