Bon jour! Melissa!! Paris is our FAV place to visit(plus we have friends there and in Monaco!) I've spent several birthdays there with my 50th being the most special! Are you there for business or pleasure or a little of both?? Enjoy yourself and take lots of pics!! Bon nuit!! vicki
Bon voyage, Melissa!! J'espère que tu t'amuseras beaucoup à Paris. Comme je suis jalouse!
Our oldest, Alex, is going to France end of May for an intern'l soccer tournament and I SO wish I could go too! I just love soccer, but there will be one night in Paris for the team, so that would be nice too.
Obviously Marj my hubs & I needed you with us on all our France trips! Believe me, what we did to the French language was not pretty! And in a Texas accent too....whew!!! Vicki(my grandmother was French, Cynthia Beauchamp....didn't help "my french" any!)

I haven't heard any Texans speak French, so I'll have to take your word for it, Vicki! lol My mom is Fr. Canadian one of 9 kids and my dad is English, half Newfie and half Nova Scotian and an only child. Growing up with both families was great! We had the best of both worlds, I always thought.
Have a great trip . I hope you are having belle temps . Now the question is where to go first -the Louvre or the Musee D'Orsay ...
Pass on the Starbucks just once and have a french expresso and croissant for me ..
A bientot ..
Yeah, right after the first time we went to France there was a commercial on here in US. It was a rather "portly" woman from the deep south going into a "shoo-shoo-shee-shee" French boutique trying to communicate with the sales lady. OMG....it was MOI just bigger.....I believe she said something like "excuseeemoiii"(you've got to really drawwww it out!). In my case I was looking for some slacks....all I could think of was the word "pantelone"(not sure what language that is?? ) I could see she was trying NOT to laugh in my face.....that's been 6 years ago and they are probably still talking about the crazy American!! I think they appreciated the fact that atleast I TRIED!!!
Vicki.....I don't know what's worse....speaking French with a Texan accent or my husband in France speaking English with a French accent . My daughter and I were SO embarrassed!! Somehow he thought people could understand him better if he asked, "Where is ze museum?"
No, totally American. When we traveled to France once, he didn't know a single word of French. He somehow assumed they'd understand him if he spoke English but used a French accent! LOL
Have a wonderful time in Paris, I love that city. Oh, and eat a pasty for me.
