Free Time

I've been thinking today about how much free time we have living here and how little free time we'll have upon returning to the States...if all goes according to plan and we have kids right away. This occurred to me while picking up books at the library earlier today. I read more now than I ever have and I love it...well non-school books that is :)

Something else which I'm sure will not occur as frequently is having friends over. Tonight we had our friend Dario over for dinner and to play our favorite game (Catan). Chris made two Chinese dishes - broccoli & chicken and pork & mushrooms. In addition, he made homemade fortune cookies, which turned out very well.


Our traveling will definitely come to an end soon. Neither of us would possibly have enough vacation time in the States to travel the way we do here. We just finalized our last trip which will be 6 days in Paris in July. We're very excited about this trip because we're staying in Central Paris in an apartment. Our brief visit to Paris last summer wasn't enough for us to experience everything we wanted to. This time we're planning to take day trips to Giverny and Versailles, and also see some of the amazing museums such as the Louvre, Rodin and the Orsay.
