Well, I think this is the very first time I have committed
words to the blog around our big trip.
It is only twelve sleeps til we depart for Paris. I can hardly believe that a lifelong dream
and visiting Paris and Venice are on the horizon. I thought it would be good to start sharing
the build up and looking forward to the journey.
So far the things I am looking forward to most are:
·
A holiday away with Grant
·
Seeing the Eiffel Tower
·
Travelling up the Eiffel Tower
·
Cycling around Monet’s garden
·
The night time illumination tour of Paris
·
Walking around and soaking up all the sights and
sounds
·
Visiting Rome
·
Getting a sense of history in Rome
·
The leaning tower of Pisa
·
The five fishing villages (strangely this is the
thing I am most looking forward to – I think the photos I have seen have given
it a MAGICal quality)
·
Venice
·
Singapore (As long as the air there has cleared
a lot)
I do not remember Grant and I ever having three weeks away
together and I am really looking forward to time talking, dreaming, planning,
enjoying, and not thinking about work. I
am looking forward to exploring and relaxing, wining and dining. I am looking forward to experiences different
ways of life and taking a zillion photos along the way. Most of all I looking forward to a relaxed
time with Grant just enjoying our time.
