The adventure starts here...
I think I'm ready...
I'm taking the plunge to boldly go beyond my usual comfort zone...
I'm taking off...
I've sipped many cups of tea sitting here in the peace and quiet of the Humble Bungalow contemplating
this "once in a lifetime" adventure.
The Gardens here in Victoria are at their best in the Spring.
I'll miss visiting the glorious beauty of The Abkhazi Gardens...
but there will be The Tuileries...The Luxembourg Gardens and Versailles!
I hope to see The Rodin and Giverny and many more parks in Paris...
PARIS!
I cannot believe I will actually be in Paris.
I'll be nibbling on pastries...cheeses and sipping wine.
I'll be walking many many kilometers each day exploring and seeing the sights.
Springtime in Paris....
There will be beauty at every turn...
I will make it my goal to take note and capture these moments.
Being in the moment...present to receive nature's gifts.
Paying attention...
focusing.
It will be wonderful to be in the City of Light...
they say that there is a glow about Paris.
So dear readers and friends...
I'll say au revoir for now.
If all goes according to plan I'll be back in a few weeks.
They say that Paris changes you...
I cannot even imagine it.
But soon
I'll know.

Hope your first visit is as magical as you dream it to be.
Bon voyage ... Enjoy every moment .. I know you will :) take care. Au revoir Rosie.
I will be very surprised if Paris changes you, but I'd be even more surprised if it didn't delight you. The light is something special, and the architecture is just beautiful. Have a wonderful time, soak it all in, and may this not be a trip of a lifetime but the first of as many as you want to take.
FUN FUN FUN. Live you dream! Will look forward to hearing all about it!!!
ENJOY every single moment. Godspeed.
So happy for you! Paris awaits. Enjoy.

How exciting Leslie! Wishing you safe travels and a wonderful journey. xx
As Naomi said, I think that there are many, many people that are very excited for you and your anticipation is so palpable. If you see this in time, I just would give the same word of advice that I always do: take time. It is within the quieter moments that you will find Paris and it will find you. I promise. Have a wonderful time and Bonne Voyage!!!

Bon voyage!! I hope you have a lovely trip. We look forward to hearing about it when you get back. I'll be interested in hearing whether you feel a bit changed by visiting Paris. (I certainly did.) I think all our great adventures change us a little. They give us a little different perspective, I guess. Enjoy!
Safe travels... Enjoy, enjoy!!
Bon Voyage Leslie, I'm beyond excited for you!

I'm looking forward to reading all about it.
Just back from my own Spring Break in Paris (still a bit jet lagged). Hope you have the same beautiful weather we had.
Cheers, M-T

This is my first comment although I read your blog for years now (loving your blog utterly)... just wanted to say that I truly miss your posts but hope you are having a fabulous time in Paris (I've been to Paris twice and just loved it... miss it and always will no matter how may more times I visit it).
