Hey, David: Paris? Paris!! Paris!!!!!!!! I assume you're not talking about Paris, Illinois. Man oh man. When I proposed to my wife, I asked her where she wanted to go on our honeymoon. She immediately said, "Paris!." I told her that's what I'd try to arrange, but if I couldn't get reservations, what would be her second choice. And there was dead silence. I still kid her about that. Second choice to Paris? And that's where we had our honeymoon, with a day trip to London.

Last Fall, we went on 1n 18 day tour of Europe and we started out with two days in .... Paris. It was wonderful coming back. I don't speak a word of French, and yet we went on our own for most of those two days as the tout group went to places we'd seen on our first trip. We wanted to revisit some of the places we especially loved on our first trip. I found Paris very easy to get around in, even with the language barrier. I felt very much at home there, even though the city has a bad reputation about not being welcoming to tourists .. especially ones who don't speak French. We loved it.

We also loved Switzerland and Italy and Spain and the other countries we've visited, but Paris is very special.. The guest room in our home is decorated with a Paris motif.

Good on you.
