all booked!

Hi, happy weekend to everyone!

just recieved an email or two from my husband this morning with all our flight and hotel bookings!

Could not be more excited!!!

I had a look at the website of the hotel in Paris and was very pleasantly surprised!  Its not the kind of place i was expecting him to book to be honest!! but in a good way! a GREAT way in fact!!

Its the St James hotel.
have a look!




I excitedly read a little bit of the story behind the hotel, and didnt digest too much but apparently it is built on the site where hot air balloons used to take off from and so there is a little bit of a theme throughout the hotel...  Look at these beautiful cabanas in the gardens!!!


 
Some of the bedrooms, very tastefully decorated I might add!
 







 
So I am leaving next sunday (yippee) and we will probably be gone for 8/9 days.  Half of the time in paris and the other half driving around the countryside!
 
Thankyou all for your awesome tips!  They have really helped me to plan things, its great to get the opinions of people who have been there before!!!
 
Hope you are all having a truly wonderful weekend!!
