Here we are, less than a week away from the trip of a lifetime. This time next week we will be in Paris... freezing our butts off no doubt. I just checked the weather and today there is a maximum of 3 degrees celcius. Awesome

This will be my first trip overseas and the nerves have been insane. But it is not unlike me to over think every possible situation. I don't stress normally so it's been new feeling this ever increasing anxiety, but I'm sure it'll be all excitement once we safely get off the Qantas plane and onto Air France! And even better when we touch down at our destination.

This morning Simon and I did most of our packing. It's so hard to know where to start but amazingly, I have packed with a little bit of room to spare. I haven't even expanded my suitcase to it's maximum size so all is going well. Now it's just the electronics and last minute stuff for the cabin bag and we're pretty much set.

Almost time...
