Paris was great. We met our friend Sarah at Gare Du Nord and went back to hers near the Pomidou Centre on Friday night.
The weekend consisted of walking, almond croissants, the Eiffel Tower, (Above - note it's not the one in Blackpool) a boat trip along the River Seine, and cafe bars drinking coffee and hot chocolate.
It was good chatting with Sarah and catching up but a lot of the time - which was noted by Erin - I was quite quiet and just enjoyed relaxing.
I was quite day-dreamy, probably as this was the last trip Erin and I would do on our own. Everywhere I went would remind me of the past, present and indeed make me think of the future. If there was a smoochy young couple I'd think of our trips around China, to Thailand or Summers in the US. If I saw a pregnant woman it would make me think about what Erin is currently going through, most of which I can't comprehend. And when there was a pram in the vacinity, it was all about the future which filled me with both excitement and anxiety.
