20 girls, 4 boys and 3 teachers are en route to Paris as we speak. The excitement level was wonderful. And Joe High School didn't want me to hang around at the airport. So, even though the plane was not leaving for two hours, I left. He gave me a perfunctory kiss and kept his cool, something that is difficult to do when you are beside yourself with anticipation.
