Last night, I finished sorting, tagging, and posting photos from the big trip to France. Hard to believe it was a year ago I was waking up in the Loire Valley and then driving to Paris on Cinco de Mayo.
I miss the feeling of that entire trip. The best chocolate ice cream ever to be eaten, the feel of the breeze on my arms, the sunshine filtered through lush green trees, cobblestones under my feet, riding the metro to explore new places, living the life for just a moment in such a beautiful and alive city…
Will try to post my favorite photos from the trip soon. Still trying to catch up on so many things. All while getting ready for the next adventure. A week of hiking in Zion National Park. Something I’ve been “training” for since the start of the year. 7 big hikes increasing in length. Past two weekends we successfully completed 10+ mile hikes. It’s been joyful to discover so many hidden gems in my own backyard. Southern California has marvelous beauty amid all the chaos.
Photos from last day in the Loire Valley and drive into Paris are up. Will get the rest of the photos up. Eventually. Slow going. New obsession with Degrassi is not helping. Don’t ask.
This video makes me cry. For all sorts of reasons, mostly happy ones.
You need to see the full HD version on YouTube to really appreciate it.
Yesterday I purchased 2 things that will help fulfill a long held dream… an amazingly comfortable pair of mary janes and a Moleskine Paris notebook.
This year, I may not be seeing Blur in London, but there’s another dream trip I’ll be doing instead. Remi and I are traveling to Paris this Spring. We’re going… no what if’s or maybes. We are going. Planning is already underway.
If you’ve traveled there before, any tips, recommendations, suggestions are most welcome!
