paris......

ok, so i have commited to a short paris trip over spring break.....and i am shopping for tickets as we speak.......at this point in my life i have no interest in multiple legs of this journey....and so will likely opt ot spend a bit more for the priviledge of spending less time on planes.....though having priced centrally located hotels, i do believe that i am willing to walk a bit further......as the price difference per day will more than cover meals......i thought i was willing to splurge on a rue de rivoli hotel, but i cannot bring myself to devote that much cash to lodging....it just doesn't seem right.....ah well......rick steves new paris book comes out the end of the month......and the born to shop update comes out in november.....no use buying outdated information......and i have plenty of time to do all of these things before march......now that the commitment has been made.....which means that now that our daughter has told her friends.....there is no turning back.....
