Maybe this baby's gonna happen after all...

The big sticking point right now with this whole trip is getting to France.  I've looked online and tickets to Paris from Phoenix are running about $1200+ each.  I figured that this would be a deal breaker for my wife, the more sensible member of this relationship.  However, she seems to be bought into this trip, and has offered to keep an eye open for cheap tickets to France over the next few months.  I guess this trip might actually happen!
