And she'll be in Paris!
It's hard to believe that it's only a week away. Seems like forever ago that the trip was decided, paid for, and items purchased for the week away.
Many people have told me to be careful, take extra precaution, don't flash money, etc. I know not to do this. I know to stick with my group, to only ask people that work somewhere reputable, and to learn the language as best I can so they don't see a dumb American. ;-)
In all honesty, I can't believe I'm going there alone, but I also can't believe I'm going at all. It's surreal right now, simply because it's something I've wanted to do for so long, but didn't want to wait forever to complete.
I'm more worried about dogface and how he'll react to my being gone for a week... not fun for a dog used to one house, put in another one with more people. I can't dwell on that because I know Charley will adapt (plus it's only a week), and it saves me some money for the vet shots he needs to be boarded, and the nightly fee they charge (varies from 18-32 a night in the places I've called).
Reminds me... Have to call and cancel the other two places.
