The photos are terrific! I remember reading Edward Rutherfurd's "Paris" and if you haven't read it, one of the main characters is a steel worker on the Eiffel Tower. It was fascinating, just for that part alone! You're right about that sepia photo! <br /><br />I had forgotten till you wrote about your airport confiscations that had some French bath gel confiscated too. Nothing special -- Monoprix too! But as you said, special to me. I'm a tad envious of your traveling, although this summer will have more than usual for me (our recent trip south, Canada and/or Martha's Vineyard. We'll see. But I'd chuck it all for a flight to Paris!Jeaniehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17482528482559445943noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5220978989894261816.post-8069063206269367482016-06-16T22:24:48.306-04:002016-06-16T22:24:48.306-04:00I hope you share your sketches.I hope you share your sketches.Lauriehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01569684144657934330noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5220978989894261816.post-52853197071840526422016-06-16T08:21:12.152-04:002016-06-16T08:21:12.152-04:00xxLa Table De Nanahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04358539954508050792noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5220978989894261816.post-48079194011955148512016-06-16T08:20:57.831-04:002016-06-16T08:20:57.831-04:00I nevr got the travel bug..or I did ..yes I did..a...I nevr got the travel bug..or I did ..yes I did..and it went away..<br />I have become a real stick in the mud.<br />I am wide eyed..and observe everything when we are out of our comfort zone..I'm always looking..even here..and I find everything..well wow..:)<br />Moreso countrysides I would have to say..La Table De Nanahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04358539954508050792noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5220978989894261816.post-86434796389852225002016-06-16T08:18:12.528-04:002016-06-16T08:18:12.528-04:00I like that one too:) He's easy to photo..not...I like that one too:) He's easy to photo..not camera shy..:)La Table De Nanahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04358539954508050792noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5220978989894261816.post-85792467030564581992016-06-16T01:14:41.428-04:002016-06-16T01:14:41.428-04:00Glad you had an adventure...welcome home.

It makes me feel alive and it is the unknown that adds to it. It makes one realize how small the world really is and how alike we all really are. Weather is so unpredictable, but what a story it makes.I remember years ago when there was a heat wave in Paris. I was disppointed because they had to remove all the chocolates from the windows! After all, that is why one goes to Paris, is it not?Abbe@This is How I Cookhttp://www.thisishowicook.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5220978989894261816.post-40465072789190731252016-06-15T20:31:58.055-04:002016-06-15T20:31:58.055-04:00I love the photo of Jacques in the window ;o)

Before forums and blogging the only people that could gain from our experience were our local friends and relatives. It's also wonderful to relive and adventure that might would only stay in our minds, whether good or bad ;) I'm sure you had a little of both and such a shame about the mustard and mister. Our airline rules are much the same with carry on baggage since 9/11. I think other countries were doing it even earlier. The sad thing about the strikes that you couldn't bring a checked bag. I loved the song you shared and the sepia colors at the end of the video look just like yours. The notes and pictures from the boys - so sweet. Cant wait to see and hear more, Monique! <br /><br />I found my garlic scapes right after I had asked you about them :)SavoringTime in the Kitchenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14416968440250548090noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5220978989894261816.post-26198240351331383102016-06-14T09:27:43.990-04:002016-06-14T09:27:43.990-04:00Love this post.

I said we were going anyway and not letting the terrorists win. I too cannot sleep a wink on overnight planes and trains either. There is just so much to see and do and to tell you a secret, I too find myself thinking or counting the days till time to go home. I guess I am not a traveler either. Just have to live vicariously through the television travel shows.donna bakerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13507579686738843451noreply@blogger.com
