Armed and ready

Well, the seven-page detailed itinterary is printed. I have made six dinner reservations in French. My garden is watered, the laundry is done (thank you Matt). Amazon has delivered books with walking tours both grown up and more kid-oriented as well as a Quaint Corners of Paris.

Most importantly, thanks to the excellent suggestion of one of my compatriots at Mothertalkers, I have a Swiss Army knife to pique-nique all around Paris with wine and cheese in hand. I am ready!

Lift off is at 9:05 tomorrow. Next time you hear from me, it should be from Paris. Bon Voyage!

Please see Paris in its proper order if you’re interested in a chronological list of posts from my family’s July 2008 trip to Paris.
