The apartment is booked the train tickets bought and a hotel in Paris booked. We are going all the way by train well three trains to be exact with a three night stopover in Paris which is exciting in itself.
Before we get to the departure point there is still a lot to be done. Number one priority for me is getting the allotment weeded and left in good order. I can't leave anything planted as I have no-one to look after it for me. So I shall clear the weeds and cover the exposed ground as weeds will still grow through the winter albeit slowly.
Deciding what to take is a tricky one we don't need bedding towels etc as the apartment is fully serviced. But we will need warmer clothes and I am thinking of taking some of my craft stuff.
We both have to have check-ups with the doctor and I still have to have a dental check. All sorts of small details that you don't need to organise for the normal 2 - 3 week holiday.
If I think about it too much I get in a panic but mostly I am very excited and feel that this will be a life changing experience.
