I hear you, Bill... It's been that way for every country I've visited
so far. You could spend years exploring it and still not see/experience/taste
everything. Three weeks seems like a generous amount of time until you get in
the middle of planning and realize that there's so much you want to see, it'd
take a lifetime! But we console ourselves with the possibility of returning
to France someday. It may be a while, but I'd like to visit the Alsace
region, Burgundy, Bordeaux, etc.--basically, all the regions we won't be
seeing this time around. And I'm sure we'll find lots of places we'd like to
revisit, too.
