Well, hard to believe but all the planning for this trip seems to be complete at last. I have a plane ticket, a shuttle from CDG airport to the apartment, travel insurance, a place to live and I'm almost packed. You will notice I have no return plans -- only plans to get to Paris. However when I got out my passport the other day, I realized that my passport expires in November. So will either have to visit the American Embassy in Paris before then [I do have the address written down!], or return sometime before then. I leave on Sunday, May 3rd, at 7:38 am, and am currently scheduled to return on Monday, June 1st, at 7:30 pm.
I've added more pictures of my apartment -- hopefully it will live up to the pictures. Apparently it was just featured on a TV show on HGTV called "House Hunters" but I haven't been able to find that particular episode as yet. Hope to start my real blog on Monday, May 4th, but we'll see how coherent I am after a 17-hour trip across the pond.
