Love love love your review! The photos are fabulous!

 

We are going on this trip next year with Princess. We have a pre stay in London and a post stay in Paris.

 

We already have Gordon Ross booked for a tour. Heard he's the best. I'm glad you liked him.

 

And I have to add that I love mushy peas AND brussel sprouts!
