I wanted to put some more stamps in my passport before wedding season showed up in full force. I guess I put the right messages out to the universe because I had a phone call Thursday morning with a friend in Europe and everything aligned. I booked a flight and I’ll be leaving tonight for Paris, Frankfurt, Lyon, and Zurich. (Or thereabouts.)
I’m thrilled and panicked. I’m a total planner and this last minute madness is making my head spin. I don’t know the language, the sights, or the customs. I didn’t even have the time to check the weather over there til yesterday (freaking freezing, by the way!). My plan is to have a croissant in Paris (I will also be demanding pigeons and someone to walk by in a beret), beer out of a big stein in Frankfurt, and chocolate in Switzerland. Everything beyond those goals will be icing on the cake. Any suggestions?
I’ll be gone just over a week and should be sufficiently jetlagged but giddy by the time I get back. I’ll be returning calls and emails by February 7th. I’ll be late on getting the February Desktop Images up so please forgive me but get excited for the Best of 2011 Contest that will be starting once I return.
Wish me luck on this whirlwind tour!
Au revoir,
Lindsay
