Herbie Causes Flashbacks

In between working and enjoying my new favorite sitcom The Big, Bang Theory, I caught the ending of Herbie Goes to Monte Carlo. My grandparents took me to the 1977 Disney film as well as the two other Herbie movies. It's a fond memory I'll never forget.

As I sat and watched the film's ending (as they zip around Paris), I realized that when I first saw the little bug with a personality in Salina, KS at the Mid-state Mall, I never imagined I could visit Paris let alone live there. It seemed so foreign - literally. And now look at me. I'm an international traveler who's been to France, Germany, the UK, Spain, Sweden, Holland, Italy, Russia, Portugal, Austria, Belgium, Istanbul and Greece with upcoming adventures to Croatia, Denmark and Ireland. Oh how times change.
