Oh joy! Joy, joy, joy. I am heading to Paris for Easter holiday and I am excited. I am over the moon. This will be my first time going to fashion Mecca. Can you tell I’m excited? I’m writing my post before I even get there ’cause I can hardly contain my glee.

Now, I don’t speak a stitch of French, but I will have in tow my scarf (which is a requirement for all women in France) and my penchant for good wine, cheese and sweets. Sorry for the cliche but OOH LA LA! I’ll have more to report after I return, along with some really rad pictures of my journey. I’m also heading to Brussels and, while I’m excited, I have no preconceived notions about the place. Paris is in my eyes like twinkling stars!! So much so, I’ve included a little ditty below about April in Paris I picked up on my last flight from Delta’s Skymiles magazine. Check it out and stay tuned for my account of Paige in Paris! Oui!

“April in Paris”

April in Paris

Chestnuts in blossom

Holiday tables under the trees

April in Paris

This is the feeling

No one can ever reprise.

I never knew the charm of spring

Never met it face to face.

I never knew my heart could sing

Never missed a warm embrace.

‘Till April in Paris

Whom can I run to

What have you done to my heart.

– E.Y. Harburg
