when i graduated from high school, my mom surprised me with a trip to paris for a week

it was a whirlwind tour of the many sites of paris, including the eiffel tower, champs elysees, arc de' triumphe, sacre couer, notre dame, versailles, the d'orsay, picasso, and louve museums.  oh yeah, and a day getting a new passport at the embassy...
