I am in Paris and I am safe and sound. My laptop is NOT WORKING!! I am meeting with a person that speaks english and fixes computers here in paris at a coffee shop within the hour and hopefully he will help me get up and going so that I can get back on and keep in touch.

Thanks to all of you who have sent me little notes/ emails this week. They are great to receive when my mind is flustered over bank accounts, blow dryers, cell phones, school ids, metro passes, bath towels, and well...finding a place to live in 3 weeks. I promise some great stories to come!
