We were supposed to travel to Paris today - and as little as 3 weeks ago as the Louve shut down temporarily and groups larger than 500 were not allowed, we still thought we would make it. And is the Instagram feeds came in showing the paltry lines to the most touristy of Parisian tourist traps it almost seemed an ideal time to be going - we’d have the city for ourselves, and honestly we already did the big tourist attractions and were looking more forward to just lounging in cafés. But changes came just as fast there as it did here and borders started to close.
There’s a joke that asks, “How do you make God laugh?” - “you tell him your plans” - so yeah, while disappointed there is some much else going on right now, and honestly we can try again in the Fall - or later if need be. We’re home for right now - and that’s okay.
