We’re off!
Wednesday, September 5th, 2007The day has finally arrived to head to London for 4 days, then on to Paris for 5 and 3 days driving the countryside in the west of France. Although I am a compulsive travel planner and love to spend hours (days, weeks!) researching online, I think perhaps I overdid it for this mere 2 week trip. The stack of papers, confirmations for apartment rentals, train and plan transfers, rental cars, hotels, is inches thick and I’m carrying the hefty folder as if I were going to a business meeting, not on vacation.
I wonder about the simplicity of a tour, with all the details of rooms and transport already decided. Well, we shall see, and I will update you along the way.
Tomorrow morning, David and I are set to meet up at Heathrow at 9:00 — at the Virgin Courtesy Desk — with his sister and brother-in-law, flying from Boston as we make the long trip from Albuquerque. Is it possible?
As the Desiderata says, “enjoy your accomplishments as wll as your plans.” More from London…
