Julia's stomping ground...... here I come!!!!

Oh my goodness..... I can't believe it has been a week since I have had a chance to catch up on my blog.  WOW..... that week flew by with hectic busy-ness and now here it is time for us to leave for our France trip.  Joe and I are soooo excited, we have read travel guides, studied maps of France, and even the language itself.  We didn't have a single thing packed until last night, but managed to get it all done and in bed early too.  


I didn't sleep well last night, but then.... I never do before a big trip.  My body rests, but my mind just won't shut down... and that is with the help of sleeping aids too.  We have a very long flight (8 hours) so we have plenty of time to be well rested when we land.  And the weather in France for the next 10 days is supposed to be in the high 70's and sunny!  WOO HOO!!!!


I have an autobiography of Julia to read on the plane, which will only add to the excitement of landing in France.  I still have plenty of reading material about her when I get back from this trip too.  It's been hard to put Julia, cooking and my blog aside for the past week, but sometimes life really is that busy and the best you can do is just hang on for the ride!  


I am sure to have plenty of material for my blog when I return from this trip.  I will not have my laptop or my cell phone with me, so it will be another 10 days before I blog again.  We have several nice restaurants on the itinerary to write about, and we always find the most wonderful little pastry shops, coffee shops, cafe's, food markets and such to grab out breakfasts and lunches from and the food is soooo fresh and yummy.  And I certainly hope to be nibbling on a flaky croissant this time tomorrow!
