I gave my niece a trip to Paris for her college graduation gift. She is the only grandchild who has yet to cross the pond and meet all of the other half of the family. I wanted it to be a surprise too - but life got too complicated so I had to tell her 9 months in advance. Gave her the book "Markets of Paris" with a coupon in it that said to redeem coupon for a free trip to Paris (really). She liked that a lot. We leave 3/14/10 and I am so already counting down the days.

Also - with the Euro the way it is I would relish a FREE room in Paris. You won't be there much and that means more moolah for other things - wine, food and shopping!

My mom would start planning her packing now. I'd have plenty of time with two weeks. Actually if someone came home with tickets and told me we were going tomorrow, I'd be ready. (Theoretically. Because right now I'm too sick to do much at all. The doctor told me to spend the week on the couch.) I'd go with the book. It looks interesting.

Making sushi is fun, which, btw, you sound like you are having lots of. Good!
