100 Days of Wonder – #67
Ah well this is what happens when you choose pictures in advance and when you are not quite thinking clearly. I chose this because I was going to have run this morning in Paris and because I somehow forgot about our visit to my dad and thought the next trip after Paris would be Disney. The castle to chateau picture was therefore perfect. But I didn’t run this morning because I felt really hungover – I didn’t drink so it wasn’t actually a hangover but it felt like it. I walked just over 2 miles instead and then several more round Paris. I’m currently at Schipol waiting for my connecting flight home and I am too tired to rethink the photo and write something meaningful. So here you have it, a picture of me gearing up for a silly challenge and more medals.

I attended a brilliant workshop today and my brain is full and I’m going to need some time to process the ideas discussed today. But it’s a happy full and I feel a bit like I did in that picture. It’s a silly selfie I took at Disneyland Paris but I felt like I was where I belonged in that moment. I thought I might feel out of place today. It’s been a minute since I did any real thinking about EU Law but it felt like I was where I belonged. It’s been a good day full of really hard brain work and lots of feminist and activist joy.

Today has definitely been a day of transportation. None of it as iconic or fast as the example in today’s picture though. I am in Paris for a workshop tomorrow which I am really looking forward to – especially now I have met some of the participants at a welcome dinner this evening.
There’s nothing like a car ride, 2 short flights, spending a disproportionately long time getting a travel pass, an RER and 3 different metro lines to make you wish for something a little more direct and speedy. And that’s with everything apart from the ticket buying being super efficient. Actually I have channelled my inner zen quite well today and actually enjoyed the travel as a time to see parts of Paris as I travelled through and people watch on the metro. Still wouldn’t mind a go in that X-Wing though.
