Thanks everyone for your wonderful warm wishes. I'm definitely not over jet lag yet (I've already attmepted this sentence three times!) but will at least start sharing with you. Planning a trip is always so exciting for me, and sharing afterwords is also such fun!

We flew Air France first class using ff miles(with the wonderful help of Awardplanner!). It was perfect. Flight to Paris was on one of the new 777's. Absolutely gorgeous first class cabin that only seats/sleeps 8. Knew it would be a great flight when beautiful pajamas were presented along with champagne on a silver tray before take off! Have flown first class before but never with turn down service!! It was definitely the way to fly.

We were in Paris for just one night, Christmas Eve. Weather was sunny and cold and the lights on the Champs were magical! We stayed at the George V Four Seasons and it was worth every extravagent euro! The flower arrangements are incredible as is the service and of course the accommodations!

We didn't want to have a huge dinner that night...so ate at a nearby bistro called Chez Andre. It was fantastic! Small, charming, and the best steak tartare I've ever had! Would definitely return next trip!

I'm starting to fall asleep at the computer so will continue later! Bye for now!
