I agree with everyone! I saw it in the store and thought it looked really cute.

I'd rather have my hair look like crap) and 4) My hair is usually such a mess in the summer that I really need both a heavy duty dryer AND a flat iron to fix it. But thanks for the info on the cheap dual voltage irons! I think I might get one of those. Oh and yes I am really into early Netherlandish art. I adore van Eyck and the one time I was in London I wound up spending almost all my time at the National Gallery in that wing of the museum and hardly saw anything else! I wrote my thesis on Jan Gossaert who is a much-maligned painter from the late 15th-early 16th c. I am so torn because I want to have a decent amount of time in Paris but I also am dying to get to Brugge and Ghent. "


hair - I totally agree on all points - besides, he most likely wouldn't appreciate the difference anyway I also try to pack light - but not a carry on for 3 weeks! When traveling with my husband, I am down to a carry on and we share a Samsonite hard side suitcase (nicknamed the "big pig") - with enough room left over for souveniers of course.


...so rare to run into someone who's into Dutch realism - how cool - I so love the Nat'l Gallery too...


I love Brugge - so many photo ops... They have a really cool statue of Jan van Eyck over a canal there too... such a pretty place - you are going to have so much fun! screw the hair! I'm jealous - I would love to cover the ground you are covering on your trip... My next trip overseas is to China in June - so I guess I can't complain too much...
