You have to love Laduree ~ our daughter brought back this wonderful box of macaroons for us.Then there is champagne. You have to love visiting Paris for the shopping, restaurants and the exciting time that you have there.
In 2007, we had attended a wedding in England and so after that we made our way over to Paris.
It was the day after Bastille Day and you could see the remains of the Parade and celebrations. Along the Champs-Elysees there were rows and rows of tiered bench seats, that they were dismantling and a big clean up, was going on of the pavements and streets. There was still the buzz of excitment everywhere.
I hope that you are having a fabulous week.

Hi Carolyn! I love the pictures...Paris must be a wonderful place to visit.

ReplyDeleteHi Marsha,
ReplyDeletethank you for thinking of us and no the earthquake was down the South Island. ( We are in the North Island.
As far as I have heard there have not been any fatalities which is great, as it was a big earthquake.
Hi Renee,
what flavour did you choose?
The different flavours and colours are amazing.
Hi Jennifer,
I hope that you get there one day and pick up yourself some of the lavender soap.
Hugs
Carolyn

Beautiful photos! A local shop was celebrating Bastille Day with a sale and Pear Martini's for the customers. I'm sure they were delicious as I had to turn it down. I did take advantage of the sale though!
