The Paris Dream Flight

Today’s question is: “If you won two free plane tickets, where would you go?”

While there are countless incredible places to explore, for my wife, Daryl, and me, the answer is an easy one: Paris. It’s the trip we’ve been dreaming about for years, and for me, that dream was sealed during one very specific moment.

A few years ago, we were at Epcot, riding the ‘Soarin’ attraction. At the end of the ride, the vehicle lifts you up and you ‘fly’ over Paris at night, headed straight for the glittering Eiffel Tower. The sight was so breathtaking, I knew right then that I had to experience it in person one day.

So, if someone’s handing out two free plane tickets, we’re cashing them in for croissants, wine, and that iconic Parisian view.

What about you? What’s your ultimate dream destination, and was there a particular moment—whether it was a picture, a movie, or a place—that made you fall in love with the idea of going there?”

    Oh, it would have to be Italy. The wine, the food, the art…the history.
