Ever since Mike passed away in July 2021, I was just so nervous about booking a trip (flight, hotel, car, activities, sightseeing etc.), and then I stumbled upon Karla’s post about visiting France with Trafalgar. “The ease. The experts. The icons. The locals. The hidden secrets. When it comes to your next vacation, nothing beats Trafalgar.”
Today, Paris will forever be different. I’ve never been to Paris, but just knowing that I will never see the Notre Dame Cathedral in its original glory has forever changed my vision of the Paris that I have come to love from across the ocean.
