This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.  Something like that only happens two or three times in a person's life!

Ordered a chicken Caesar salad from Stanley's and added cashews to it - thought that might add a little something.

We packed our stuff in carry-on bags -- one was an old rolling computer bag I never use any more. Plus my backpack and a couple of sling backpacks.

They pushed people to gate-check the bags, so we checked the roller bag. Saved us $40 each way.

We had (sorta) argued about checking a bag. When I pointed out it would be $40 each way, he agreed to pack lighter.

I hope that author of OTHELLO was able to negotiate a profit percentage, too.

The Palace of Versailles was most excellent. We had started the day with a lunch at a cafe that is all pink, its interior filled with pink flowers, each table dedicated to a famed romantic pair. Ours was Edith Piaf and Jacques Pills. Anyway then we took a cab out to the palace and nearly missed our tour. But we caught up and enjoyed the apartments of the palace, the hall of mirrors, the gardens, then a nice ride back to our spot in the city.

For short trips (even up to two weeks) we don't check a bag.  It is harder when you need to wear nice clothes or have to pack heavier, warmer clothes.

Thanks to a cancellation I finally saw my primary for my yearly check.  He has ordered an inhaler for my chronic covid cough.
