Visited the parents, dealt with the space-available travel fun. odds are I will arrive in the afternoon on the same day as meliny and black_reaver.

SF->Chicago->Paris->Florence?
SF->Chicago->Paris->Venice?

See, I have to book a round trip, and can't do 'sf->venice' as one leg and 'florence->sf' as the other.
Florence is, oddly, cheaper than Milan.

It is a conundrum. I think I'm going to do Florence, because it's not a long train jaunt to Venice, and I am leaving from Florence.

Though I think I may try for an 8 hour layover in Paris, on the way home.
I still need to see the bijouterie that Mucha designed.

  I'm glad you're taking this trip at last! I look forward to seeing photos and hearing tales. Hopefully good ones.
  
  When you're back and rested, we should do dinner.

  Before you go to the musée carnavalet to check it out, ask if this particular room is open on that day. They're sometimes understaffed and close certain rooms, I missed the bijouterie (jeweller's) fouquet once because of this.

    Indeed, I missed it last February because of an art nouveau conference.
    I was most irritated to miss it, and moreso that I couldn't even convince the people doing the conference to let me throw a large chunk of Euros at them so I could join it for the whole damn conference's span just to be able to walk into it that afternoon, or any afternoon of the week I was there.
    BTW: I trust that you recognize the sundial on the Musée Cluny in this icon?
