It was a busy week between wrapping up taxes to send to my accountant and finalizing details on The Paris Guide. Daylight savings didn’t help, and I had trouble sleeping all week. Highlights of the week included seeing The Paris Guide almost complete, and it is informative and beautiful. I have been planning my Paris trip for spring simultaneously, which has helped me write some sections. April is going to be a good month!

    • Thank you, Sue! Seeing a local Chicago spot elevates our museum dining experience is a bonus. We need an extra boost in that area.

  1. Especially enjoyed the passport stamp article! It mentioned travelers who had just gone through Heathrow and received stamps. So interesting since I was in Heathrow in October 2019 and received none! Mine was done via facial recognition. Sad to see them go.

    • There are a lot of changes happening with travel, especially with the increase in traffic to Europe post-pandemic and technology upgrades. I love my passport stamps and have recently renewed mine and look forward to getting new stamps from my travels.
