Well, once again, where would I be without my friends?! Dom arrived at 7:30 this morning to take me to the train station. I hardly slept a wink last night so I was moving slowly. The weather was already warm and humid too so hauling heavy suitcases was even less fun than I had imagined. She helped me get everything onto the train, and then I had about two minutes to thank her again for all that she has done for me this year. I will miss her tremendously!
I had a three-hour train ride to relax before the next big move of the day. When I arrived at the Gare de Lyon, Kristen showed up to help me navigate the métro. We moved my gigantic luggage into the hotel and then had lunch outdoors in a cute café. While we were there, Kristen got a text from Stephen saying that he was passing through and wanted to meet for coffee. We quickly finished up lunch and rushed back to the Gare de Lyon for a brief rendez-vous. The rest of our day was spent walking, trying on perfume and visiting a free exhibit about the deportation of Jewish children during WWII at the Hôtel de Ville.
If my back can handle it, I leave for the airport around 7:00 tomorrow morning. I won't have my two angels to help me this time so I'll just take it very slowly.

In front of the Conciergerie before the arrival of a big rain storm Can you see the Eiffel Tower in the background?
