I'm all checked in for my flight in the morning, largely packed, and have a free day today for last minute fun before a farewell dinner this evening!
There's an English-language bookstore around the corner from my apartment called "Shakespeare and Co." It's a Paris institution from what I understand (and more recently, a TikTok one according to my niece!) -- and the lines outside the door would seem to agree. Every time I've walked by, I've been like "nah, not today." Well, today was the day. I was there about 15 minutes before it opened and a line had already started. I enjoyed wandering around and even grabbed a book for the plane.
The one thing on my bucket list was doing a nice tea time somewhere -- and luckily, the stars aligned and we were able to get reservations at the Ritz Paris when my sister was in town! What a regal experience...it felt like we took a step back in time.
Our farewell dinner was at a lovely place called "Les Baux de Paris" (https://www.tripadvisor.fr/Restaurant_Review-g187147-d12833057-Reviews-Les_Baux_de_Paris-Paris_Ile_de_France.html). It's been a great trip with a great group of people!
Thanks for following along with me on this journey.... see you stateside!
