Eiffel Tower

We got home Wednesday afternoon from our trip to Paris.

I told you I’d check back on whether we had ‘rewards’ on this trip. To put it in terms of startup exits, we hit a base hit. Didn’t hit a home run, but definitely didn’t strike out either.

Paris is an amazing city. The kids did surprisingly well. We learned some travel tricks. (Rent apartments!! You’ll save 2/3 over hotels, and we ate at least 2 meals a day at the apt and saved hundreds and hundreds in meal expenses.) We ate an authentic Thanksgiving dinner at a French restaurant. We never had one run-in with ‘the rude’ French. I fit in a couple of business meetings. It was confirmed to me again how incredibly spoiled we are here in America (and especially Utah) after living in a 325 sq ft apt for 8 days. And Kaitlin and Alex got to the see the Eiffel Tower.

And all in all it was a good trip.
