Paris, France

Paris, France
Just home from France. We spent the first part of our trip in fabulous Paris! The Eiffel Tower is huge and breathtaking.

And here's a short video I took...while we sat in a cafe waiting for our breakfast. One could spend hours and hours in sidewalk cafes...and we did.

Tomorrow, more on our trip to France!

    Oh my, how I long to go back I was there about 6 years ago with my daughter who is a French teacher, perfect. However, not quite the city for someone who is celiac and lactose intolerant! Maybe I will participate in another of your European adventures Jane (and Don). However will see you in Taos next summer! Excited for that!!

  7. Merci bien for the wonderful pics Jane! It brings back many happy memories for me. I must say that for as many times as I've been in Paris I have yet to see the Musee D'Orsay, along with other landmarks. I could sit at a cafe endlessly too-and aren't the pastries positively THE best?? Love your yoga pose pics-what fun! Your sketch of Notre Dame is beautiful. I'm looking forward to your next post!
