My trip to Paris is a month away and I cannot wait. I have done plenty of solo traveling but Tampa to Paris is a new one for me. My efforts to acclimate myself to the French language have been limited to changing the setting on my ipod to French. But of course, when looking for particular tracks they are all spelled in English so it's kind of not all that effective. But listening to Piaf sing La Vie en Rose every night as I walk the dog is really getting me in the mood. Grace and I are planning a tour of the Burgundy region and my travel editor wants me to do a night bike tour of Paris so there will be fun that is also subsidized. Who said a liberal arts education is worthless?

I'm so jealous. As long as you try to speak French, the French are very accomadating. They switch to English as long as you give it your best go. Learn how to count. That will really help.
What a fabulous trip. Maxine wants to live in Paris.

Yeah I know, but this time I'm actually trying to use it as an off shoot to maybe selling stuff.
Bon Voyage!
