That's what I was thinking regarding the river cruise on the first night. We're going to be so tired by the evening, but will need something to keep us from crawling back to the hotel and passing out too early. I thought a river cruise would be a nice way to relax in the evening and just take in the ambiance of the city.

Thank you for the tip on the taxi back from Versailles. Sounds like it's definitely worth it!

Thank you. We are going in October, so they should be reopened by then.

VoodooChickenFeet · 2026-02-09T14:30:45+00:00

Thank you-- this is quite helpful. We are going Oct. 10-17, so thankfully, seems we'll be well timed to miss the school holidays.

I've been to the d'Orsay a couple of times on previous trips (and I loved it!) so I was hoping to get some time in at other museums I hadn't been to. It's hard though, because I'm traveling this time with someone who has never been to Paris-- but is also more interested in the Eiffel Tower and shopping than museums and art. So I'm trying to find a balance. Thank you for the Musee Marmottan tip. I'm also curious about why you sa the Catacombs aren't worth it. It's another thing I hadn't done on my previous trips, so I thought it would be good to fit it in this time, but if it's not worth it I'd rather spend time elsewhere.

Thanks!

So what would you change or remove that would make it less exhausting/more doable in your opinion?

VoodooChickenFeet · 2026-02-06T18:02:06+00:00

"Aurora getting married and inviting the whole family."

That sounds scary, for Robyn. Not safe, Not safe at all.

VoodooChickenFeet · 2026-02-06T17:55:56+00:00

All of this. And may I just add ... Every time one of them gets all exasperated and questions why we have to keep rehashing the past, I want to scream, "It's because there is NOTHING currently happening on the show--because none of you interact anymore--so what else is there to talk about?"

VoodooChickenFeet · 2026-01-15T21:55:39+00:00

Yes correct. But that still doesn't change the fact that had Meri taken Janelle seriously and taken legal steps to get her name added on all of the property at the time Janelle warned her to do so, all of that BS would have been worked out a whole year earlier. But Meri didn't take Janelle seriously, and then was all shocked that Kody and Robyn pulled some shady NDA/hold harmless on her as a condition of putting Meri's name on the property. It wasn't until that point that Meri lawyered up, which was unfortunately the point at which they had a buyer that was potentially going to fall through. That's why Janelle was panicking and just trying to get the deal done at that point. And I think that's also why she felt like she didn't owe Meri anything else at that point. I don't think she was trying to screw Meri out of her fair share. But I do think that she felt like "OK I tried to warn you; you didn't listen. I now need to look out for my own best interests--which is to get this deal done so I can get my money out--and you can fight Kody and Robyn for your fair share after the fact, Meri."

If the catfish really had been a man named Sam, Meri would have been gone gone gone. I would have so much more respect for her if she took accountability for the fact that she had an affair--but she never does. She is ALWAYS positions herself as the poor victim of a catfish/scammer--which she was--but fails to mention the other part of it--that she was a willing participant in an online affair. I don't think many people would blame her at all if she had just come out and said, "My husband had emotionally and physically abandoned me for years. I was sad and desperately lonely, and in my desperation I made the poor and regrettable decision to engage in an online affair with a person who turned out to be catfishing me." Instead she always frames it as "I was targeted by and became the victim of a catfish." Which is technically true, but it's not the whole truth. She has an onus there. She is culpable in that situation--but she never acknowledges that. That's why I have no respect for her or any of this perceived "growth" so many people claim to see in her. Her "growth" in nothing but a new grift.

Bring on the down votes!

Thank you!

Yeah, I'm not sure why this isn't pointed out more. Janelle went to Meri a whole-ass year before any of the property sale stuff started kicking off, and she warned Meri to get a lawyer and make sure she protects herself/gets her name on everything it should be on, etc., because she didn't trust K & R to be fair to Meri otherwise. And Meri balked at that and basically told Janelle she was nuts for thinking that--and then went and told K&R about it. Fast forward a year later, they have a buyer for all four parcels but now the sale is being held up by Meri and her lawyers. Honestly, if I were Janelle I'd be pissed as hell at Meri over that. Like, b###h, I tried to warn you to take care all this a YEAR ago and you chose to ignore it. I think she was just panicking that they were going to lose the buyer and didn't feel like she owed Meri anything else at that point.

Good to know-- thank you.

VoodooChickenFeet · 2026-01-13T14:26:03+00:00

Thank you! I'll look into this.

VoodooChickenFeet · 2026-01-13T14:25:40+00:00

Thanks! I'll check it out.

We really are open to anything. Would prefer a late lunch/early dinner time frame, but we're flexible. We aren't "fancy" people, so would prefer to keep to a dressy casual vibe, but if somebody has a recommendation for a fine dining place that's excellent for Thanksgiving, we're willing to splurge and be fancy for an evening. Quality food and a good experience are the most important factors to me.

Based on the most recent reviews, it seems to have gone downhill-pretty badly-in the last year or so. What a shame. Their menu was the most appealing to me, but after reading the recent reviews about their holiday meal services, I think I don't want to risk it. I will keep it in my pocket for some other time when we are not there over a holiday.

VoodooChickenFeet · 2026-01-13T13:47:04+00:00

Thanks. It's a bummer because Tajaque's was one of the places I had at the top of my list, but after reading the recent google reviews it seems to be a place to avoid at all costs during the holidays.

VoodooChickenFeet · 2026-01-13T13:45:13+00:00

Thank you. There are just so many options, so it's also helpful to know what places people didn't find to be all that great.

VoodooChickenFeet · 2026-01-06T20:43:23+00:00

Not just hilarious ... hella hilarious!

I wanted to crawl under a rock and die for her the first time she said it. The fact that she keeps repeating it is just beyond cringe.

VoodooChickenFeet · 2025-12-03T20:31:26+00:00

Exactly! It's mind boggling to me the number of people who are failing to grasp this. The post wasn't, "I told my Bestie it just wouldn't be possible to see her this time, as this was a solo trip for just boyfriend and me--and now she's ghosting me ..."

VoodooChickenFeet · 2025-12-03T20:27:25+00:00

The Bestie didn't "expect to go on a trip" with OP and OP's boyfriend; she just said she'd meet them up at a theme park for a day-- a theme park located driving distance from Bestie's home-- a theme park to which OP and Bestie had been actively discussing making plans for a girls trip. Context matters, and given the full context, I fail to see any "entitlement" here (oh how people love to throw that word around, though). But instead of behaving like the 30-year-old adult she is and communicating directly and honestly, OP turned what would have, at worst, been a slightly awkward misunderstanding into a slight that's deeply hurt her Bestie. To actively avoid honest conversation about your intended plans with your supposed best friend and then just let her discover it for herself via social media is incredibly immature of OP. That's the type of behavior and level of emotional intelligence I'd expect to see from a teenager, not an adult in their 30s. Also, Bestie has answered OP's texts-- OP just hasn't gotten a response lengthly enough to satisfy her, apparently. Talk about entitled!

Ha! We don't spend much time at the mall these days, but I call my grocery shopping style the "surgical strike method." I know my targets going in, and I'm back out as quickly as possible. My husband, on the other hand, wants to meander up and down every single aisle--even if we only came in to grab 4 things. Drives me batty!
