The Last Meal

 Mari Homme and I are heading out for our final meal in France.  What a dream this trip has been.  

We had our COVID tests this morning and we do not have COVID, so we probably will be allowed back into the United States. 

Our taxi arrives at 10 tomorrow, so there will be time for one more croissant with our coffee.  

We walked to Luxembourg Garden yesterday and talked about the stuff we won't miss and the stuff we will miss.  The stuff we won't miss is a short list:  Secondhand smoke on the daily and crowded sidewalks full of people who need HEFFERNAN'S SIDEWALK ETIQUETTE REFRESHER COURSE.  A few other dibs and dabs, but mostly we'll miss this place.  France rocks. 

All good things must come to an end, though, and come to find out we are both looking forward to getting home.  We miss our peeps and we miss our town and we miss conversations in our native tongue with others who are not us.
