Je suis Irlandaise

I am off on holidays this weekend. Since I started working after college I have not taken 2 full weeks off and this time I will be away for 16 whole days! I am really looking forward to it. I am going to spend time in the French Alps with my beautiful nephew, my sister and brother in law, his parents and my parents. What a crew! I'll either go crazy in 3 days or stay forever! I'm finishing the vacation with a sojourn in Paris.
How I love Paris. I have been visiting Paris on and off through my whole life. My first time there I was 7 and I went with my parents. I refused to eat my hamburger because they didn't cook it enough! Then I went back as a dancer and gained entry to the performance of L'ecole de danse l'opera national de paris. The girls were so beautiful. I spent a summer there as a frustrated au pair when I was 18 and returned for a romantic getaway on my 22nd birthday. Paris has watched me grow up and I can't wait to show the city the woman I am now.
