I am so excited, tomorrow I leave with my mom for The Netherlands to meet up with my aunt and a close family friend for nine days of adventure in Amsterdam and Paris! We will be leaving tomorrow afternoon and arriving around 7:30am Friday morning in Amsterdam, we will stay there until Monday then catch an early morning train to Paris, stay in Paris until Wednesday and then return to stay in Amsterdam until Saturday May 15th. WOOOOOOOHOOOOO!!! (that's what every nerve ending in my body is screaming).... Tomorrow can't come soon enough!
I'm really looking forward to spending more time in these two cities since in the past I was only able to explore them briefly.... Oh, and I never got to visit the Louvre and go up in the Eiffel Tower while in Paris because the Louvre was closed (it was a Wednesday and apparently they are only closed Wednesdays - what luck huh!?) and there wasn't enough time to trek up the tower for a look-see. So, I'll definitely be doing all of those things this time around!! And, like I said before, I'm particularly excited for my mother because it will be her first time visiting these two cities and she has not been in Europe for over 20 years! This is sure to be fun, my already giddy excitement about traveling and revisiting Europe is sure to be heightened further through my mom's enjoyment!
I will definitely miss my man, but he will survive without me (though I'm afraid he might gobble every last bit of food in the apartment out of boredom!! LOL). Also, I will have to leave detailed instructions for him on how to care for my army of plants!!! HAHA...
Anyway, I have so much to do before take-off time.... Packing is a nightmare for me because I don't like planning my outfits in advance and to make matters worse I have way too much clothes, purses and shoes to choose from! I am so anxious to get home from work today!!!
Have a wonderful day everyone, I'll do my best to post pictures and do brief posts while on my vacation... that is, whenever I am able to connect to a WiFi network!
