Above: chocolates from Cacao Et Chocolat (thanks to Mark Bernstein for pointing us to this chocolate shop in Paris).

Back home! Jeff and I had a truly *amazing* time in Paris, the Tuscany area of Italy, and Rome. Thanks so much to those of you who offered advice and tips for our trip; we followed up on many of them and they were well worth it.

I have to unpack and catch up on nearly three weeks' worth of e-mail, but I'll be posting a detailed trip report when things settle a bit and my brain recovers from jetlag. Meanwhile, I'll be uploading some trip photos to my Flickr account, with comments.

And thanks SO much to my mom-in-law Ginny for making this trip possible!

re: photo above: Jeff and I took Martin GK's advice to climb the Arc De Triomphe, and the view was fantastic...thanks for the tip, Martin! In the photo, Cora is posing with the famous Paris landmark. See for more background about Cora.
