Paris
My husband just asked me last week whether I want to go to Paris and without hesitation I answered with a YES! Though I have been there twice when I was studying in UK once during winter for Christmas and there other during summer, I still want to go there. Maybe it’s because I haven’t been to the city of Love with my husband and I haven’t seen it in autumn but is there really that much to offer in this metropolitan? I don’t know.
Yes, the city is beautiful and at night, u see the Eiffel Tower nicely light up but then over here we have Petronas Twin Tower also. The people? Not that I am obsessed with French guys and with a country where people prefer to speak French than English but hey its cool to think that I will be celebrating my birthday with my husband in Paris…how about that? Maybe the experience as a student and as married couple would be different…definitely different when u have seen the place before.
My husband has left Paris yesterday to meet customer first and I am to join him later on Thursday. It was kinda last minute and we just booked our hotel for last two nights just yesterday and mind you…it’s so expensive! For the price of 5 star over here, we r only staying at 2 star there. The good news is I will be staying one night at 4 star hotel close to Arc de Tromphe paid by his company.
This will be my first time going oversea since I get pregnant (Singapore doesn’t count) so I am very excited. Moreover the two times I went there, I didn’t get to go up the Eiffel Tower and I am going up this time despite the bomb threat last Sunday. Hopefully like what my friend Neil said, it doesn’t come until few weeks later. I definitely don’t like the idea where the only way out is jump..like those people in WTC on Sept 11. My heart only felt heavy to leave my baby for the first time for few days.Gonna miss him so much.Hopefully I will still be able to breastfeed him when I come back.
So….PARIS,here I come!
