I see London, I see France... No, REALLY!

OK, so i skipped my arts abroad from school to go on a cruise with some fine young people from this board, and I am very much looking forward to it. But as for the school trip, I come to find out today that instead of their original plans with Prague and Athens, it has been changed to Paris, and London of course, as they choose London to begin with every year. The trip is good for 3 credits, and it's two weeks long. Now, the plane from Paris is due to arrive in Newark on the 15th of January, which is when the boat leaves from Florida for the cruise. However the trip is really flexible, and students can invite anyone to come along, as well as go early and/or/leave early. My professor, trying to convince me that the trip is worthwhile (and it's also very popular) was telling me he would work somethign out credit wise, and allow me to leave early, and get back in time for the cruise, either A: In newark Airport. or B: Straight to Florida.

The trip to Europe would be covered by my left over grant money, and thus be rather affordable. But this, combined with the cruise is nearly 3 weeks of travleing. Think it's a good idea? Or is Europe not all its made up to be? If you have been to Paris or London, what did you think of it? Is it worth all the traveling?
