Anniversary Present

This week is my 9th wedding anniversary.  Last night Kah Leong and I went out to celebrate at our favorite Italian restaurant in Chelsea, Don Giovanni's.  For his gift, I gave him detailed plans and budget for a trip to Paris, with every day planned out broken up into morning, afternoon, and evening, with romantic city walks and outings to shopping areas, museums, and historic sights.  The gift came with a folio of my pen and ink drawings of some of the places we might see when we go.  He really liked the gift, especially the fact that it involves me learning as much french as possible before we go!  Normally on a trip like this we would join up with a tour, but I really want to play tour guide and think it will be a grand adventure!  Here are some of the drawings... I will make nice copies available on Etsy if people are interested.

I love it too, you are such a great artiste, Paris will be lucky to have you gracing her sidewalks.

Sign me up! (Oooh, and be sure to add Monet's garden to your itinerary, with a picnic lunch!) Your mom turned me on to the children's book "Linnea in Monet's Garden," which even my boys loved.
