Vegas Here I Come

Tomorrow I leave for Las Vegas and I am incredibly excited. I can’t wait to sit by the pool and act like a tourist (although I have been there many times before). I, however, dread the thought of packing because I’m usually the girl that forgets something important. So this time I’m thinking ahead (well, more than usual) and here is my list of things I can’t live without on my upcoming trip. What are your vacation essentials?

1. ipod: for lounging around the pool
2. Bathing Suit: for lounging in the pool
3. Breezy Dresses: for the 100 degree weather
4. Sunscreen: can’t leave the hotel without it
5. Snacks: for the four hour car ride

French Fanatic

I have long been fascinated by all things French. French clothing, French language, French cooking (as demonstrated by my recent crepe post), etc. I even took an extra French class my senior year of high school; after three years of Spanish (Me llamo Chelsea). Korina took French class for three years. During that one year of French I learned to love the beautiful language and everything about the country. Our teacher lives in France during the summer break and her lectures are filled with her own pictures taken on her many trips. Here are a few things we cannot wait to do when we eventually get to visit France; hopefully one day soon:

1. Have coffee and a pastry in a French Café.
2. Shop till we drop.
3. Visit the Louvre.
4. Climb the Eiffel Tower.

Where is your dream getaway?
