Paris


9 years in Paris

My good friend Linda originally from Texas has been living in Paris for close to 10 years now and nine years ago she started a blog for her family and friends which became very popular.  To celebrate her 9 years of blogging, she is giving this beautiful pendant to the winner of a drawing that you can enter by visiting her blog “Frenchless in France” under

Eglise Orthodoxe russe rue Daru

This is a typical walk that I would take in my neighborhood. Start at Arc de Triomphe and go South on Blvd Malesherbes or Rue du Faubourg Saint Honore.  We are not far from Parc Monceau here.

Strange Chinese building in the 8th

Eglise Saint Augustin

I love Parisian cafes especially in the morning when they are being set up and crowds have not arrived yet.

Quiet cafe in morning

Sunflowers and a beautiful shop.

Quiet courtyard

And finally, one of those wonderfully peaceful courtyards. I end up the day with a movie to make it a fabulous Parisian day !

And if you prefer a more classic design, just walk around the corner to Place Colette.

Cour de Rohan

In one of Paris many courtyards

Notre Dame

This policeman was nice enough to let us use him as a “prop”. It makes a traditional image a little more interesting…

In Paris there is a always a good way to make lemonade out of lemons.
