Bleary Eyed

I boarded my plane at Gate 28 with my heart in my throat but determination in my step. I cant believe that I have finished my time in Finland. Said a couple more good byes. Stayed up all night with some old friends and some new ones before I took my flight in the morning, last minute phone calls, and now here I am at an internet cafe in the Latin Quarter of Paris. I have wandered around aimlessly through these streets, popping into an occasional bookstore, cafe, or boutique. I have forgotten how lovely this city was, but I still remember that first moment i stepped into it just this past June. Now I am back to bid this city farewell yet again. I have had such an awesome time this summer and I want to hold on to every moment, but I will be boarding yet another plane tomorrow morning back to Cleveland(hopefully! I cant help worry that something will go wrong again with my flights or my tickets). So farewell Paris, Helsinki, Madrid, Nice, Barcelona, Seville, Tampere, Savonlinna, Turkku, Firenze, and Roma and Hello Cleveland USA.
