I saw farewell to Paris
Day
6. I say farewell to Paris. It was everything I'd hoped and more. And I
will return. Because as I saw in a small arts exhibit at the airport,
travel is the source of inspiration... Thank you for sharing the journey
with me!
Day Chanel No. 5 in Paris
Day Chanel No. 5. The day began at Angelina where Coco would get her
chocolat chaud. Like the richest milk chocolate bar you've ever tasted.
Melted. In a cup. Served with whipped cream. And then I did it. I was
*really* there...
Day 4 in Paris
Day 4. More markets in the morning! Even more wonderful finds to be had.
My bag was bursting with books! Felt the need for a relaxing afternoon,
so went to the big beautiful public
"jardin" with 2 of my new FFFs (flea friends forever) That's what I'm
calling them. Or maybe FFFF (French flea friends forever)... We took
bread and cheese and fruit and olives and Coca-Cola Light and had a
lovely picnic with our fellow Parisienne. And read. And journaled. We
heard a live band sitting in a gazebo playing the theme song from
"Bewitched". We fought hard to keep our little green chairs...when one
of us got up for any reason, someone ran over and asked if it was free.
But it was such a lovely day, who could blame them? Everybody wanted to
sit and enjoy the day. After that* we sauntered to Notre Dame and
attended Mass ... with the arch bishop of Paris ... who's also a
cardinal. What a day!!! *We counted and it took less than 45 seconds for
our chairs to be claimed.
Day 3 in Paris
Day 3. The photos of Paris are great, but here are the ones I know you
really want to see ... the goods! First day at the flea market was even more wonderful than I ever imagined!

Day 1 in Paris
I'm here! I'm really in Paris! The first 24 hours were kind of a blur; thank goodness I have the pictures to remember what I saw!
