8 Days to Paris
Wednesday, May 30, 2007
Only 8 more sleeps till I depart for Paris and I can't wait!
I've made lots of contacts online whom I'll be meeting up with, I'll be visiting silk, art and silk painting supply stores, also bead stores, and I'm sure I'll find plenty of things which need to come home with me :-)
I've located and booked accommodation online - how easy is that these days? Too easy, I love it!
I've booked a train - the TGV - the 'very fast train' from Paris to Lyon, then slower train to Saint-Etienne, then bus to Chambon-sur-Lignon ... and have downloaded my ticket. I'll spend 5 days there for the SILK PAINTING FESTIVAL 18-24 June, where I'll meet up with my wonderful friend Jacqueline and her husband Bill [from Santa Barbara USA] and Jean-Louis from Montreal - woohoo!
Plus I contacted my online travelling women's network Journeywoman.com and asked for tips and contacts, and I've been overwhelmed with wonderful responses -thank you everyone!!
OK - have to dash - I'm cutting out, sewing and painting some new clothes!
Talk soon!
