Looking forward to reading about the impressions you gather from your trip around America....

I know it's great, isn't it?? I've been putting it together for decades, and I just hated writing a new list all over again,
so I devised this one and just kept updating it.
Will keep you updated as we travel around New Mexico, Arizona and California.
the more room in your suitcase from those lovely new purchases in Paris!
Have an awesome time! xx
