This weekend I will be heading up to the big apple for a wedding and it got me thinking. I've had to do very little in preparation for this trip thanks to the due dilligence of the groom (Mar 12 correction, just found out it was the bride!). The best transportation options were identified or prearranged (car service), the hotel was reserved (with a good discount), and a exciting luncheon has been planned. This is one of my few trips where I have had to do very little leg work, which I am appreciative of.
In turn, I have been able to focus on planning my subsequent next big trip (not including the holiday cruise). For now, the plan calls for a return to the countryside of merry old England, urban London, and the enchanting city of light (enlightenment), Paris. The major decision will be whether to go at Christmas or slightly earlier in November 2012.
The impedus for this trip is the fulfillment of a promise to our twelve-year old daughter of a post-bat mitvah trip to a city of her choice, Paris. However, I'm not one to leave well enough alone, so I've tacked on a side trip to the Cotswolds (Bath) and London in pursuit of things Harry Potter (her favorite subject). With the opening of the new London WB Studios Harry Potter tour on the horizon, this trip is shaping up to be unforgettable. Now to get started on the details.
PS - I wonder if a flying charm can be applied to Virgin Atlantic airfare?
