Au Revoir Paris!
View of Paris from the top of the Notre Dame Cathedral
Today is our last day in Paris and I’m sad. I mean, really sad. For the past week, I feel like I’ve been living a fantasy. The sites, the food, the culture…wow! And my daughter celebrated her 18th birthday in Paris, France! *faint* This vacation has been absolutely amazing!
Shortly, we will have french beignets, probably stroll the nearby residential neighborhood, and maybe even visit the Eiffel Tower…all for the last time.
As a result of this experience, BG has decided that she wants to spend a semester studying abroad and I have a sudden desire to see the rest of Europe. Until then, we have several souvenirs, over 300 pictures, and countless memories that will last a lifetime.
Au revoir Paris!

It was a great vacay but 1 week was enough for me. I’m glad to be back home, safe and sound.

I am glad that you all enjoyed yourself! Europe has many wonderful places to visit. Your daughter will really enjoy studying abroad. It will give her the opportunity to meet other students from various places and there are plenty of weekend trips to other countries she will take with her new found friends! Put Vienna, Austria, London, England and Prague, Czech Republic on your list!

Her HS was very diverse. She has friends who were born/have lived all over the world. I asked what she enjoyed most about this trip – she said the FOOD! LOL

I really enjoy Paris as a city. Make sure you climb the Eiffel Tower as that really is an experience.

Studying aboard is the best thing ever! Plus it gives you a reason to travel more (I mean a mom needs to see her daughter right?) Hope you have a safe trip home and if your daughter needs study abroad financial tips – let me know.
