Off to Paris

I'm headed for Paris for a conference of Hercules developers. My flight leaves MSP a little before 10 PM tonight, and arrives at Charles de Gaulle about 6 PM Paris time tomorrow (with a 3-hour connection at Heathrow). Whee. I popped for business class tickets (at 150,000 miles for the trip), so at least I'll have comfortable seating on the trip. The seat is supposed to lie essentially flat, so maybe I'll be able to sleep on the airplane, something I've never managed before.

I'll return Thursday, arriving early afternoon in Minneapolis. I suspect I'll make the drive home and promptly crater.

I've never been to France before. I doubt I'll attempt to use my 35-year-old high-school French on the folks there, as it'd probably be less understandable than my English.
