Tomorrow is my last day in Paris. It's been really nice to be able to go out into a city that isn't yours and come back to a homebase that feels like home. My aunt, uncle, and cousin have been awesome. Opening their home, feeding me ridiculously well, making sure I'm set to see the city. Once again I am amazed how I've lucked out and have such generous people in my life.
What I did today:
Sacré-Cœur Basilica
Walked around Montmarte, tried to find the bar Amelie worked in but got lost
Moulin Rouge, which turns out to be surrounded by Paris' red light district
Saint-Honoré to window shop all the designer stores
Louvre (closed so just sat outside)
Palais Royal
Opéra Garnier
Bought what are supposedly the best baguettes in Paris
Tomorrow evening I get on a sleeper train for a 14 hour ride to Venice.

Make sure you keep your cabin locked... I always hear of trouble on sleeper trains. Unless Cary Grant is in your car. :)
Chau -- Venice is delicious. Go to town on the pizza, red tablewine, and custard.
