We will most likely be going in April as my sister is organising it. It's just us three girls going. This is our 5 yearly overseas trip - the first to a non Asian country!

We began in Bali, when my youngest daughter was only a 3. I had to get a housekeeper in to look after the children and DH. Then went to Thailand, north only, then Melbourne (for a change), Vietnam and now Paris!
A great cook is one who can rustle up a fabulous family meal with some freezer burnt chops, wilted carrots, sprouting potatoes and cabbage that's gone brown on the cut edges.

Meagan you will have such a wonderful time with your family.  Such great memories that you will be able to treasure always.

I don't have a sister or daughter. I have a great sister in law and 4 best friends I love like sisters.

The present backpacker barmaid in Nyabing is from France, so I'll be picking her brains!

I keep forgetting to ask her. Will do so tomorrow.
I have a year to save up for the trip!
