pre-departure to do list

ahh i'm leaving so soon!

here's my list of things to do before je dis "au revoir" à paris:

• paris plage
• centre pompidou
• giverny? (if i'm feeling ambitious)
  
• the classiest of vin picnics by la tour eiffel
• legit tea sesh at la durée
• marché aux puces
• le louvre, cont'd (i spent five hours there on friday afternoon, and saw about 1/4 of it)
  
• catacombes de paris
• espace dali montmartre
• WATCH THE TOUR DE FRANCE COME THROUGH!!
• parc de la villette
• valentino exhibit au musée des arts décoratifs
  
• postcards, postcards, postcards (sorry for the delay. i've been a lazy bum! also, if i don't have your address yet and you want a little BA-lovin' via airmail, e-mail it to me asap, s'il vous plaît)

things i've managed to cross off the list the past few days:

• louvre (part I + requisite "la jaconde" viewing)
  
• thé à la menthe à la mosquée de paris
• jardin des plantes
• vélib adventure!! (fun fact: i lost my balance at a stop light, and toppled over onto the sideview mirror of the car next to me. so. still not so comfortable with the urban bike riding...)

i'll keep you posted on my progress with this list o' mine. it's a lot to do, but i'm a big girl. i can handle it.
