PARIS!!

 This is the staircase in Oolie's hotel in Paris.
We decided to leave Angouleme early so we could 
stroll through Paris before leaving the country.
We dropped our bags at the hotel and took off
(Becky was not feeling 100%, but was a trooper)

BTW, that's Oolie racing down the stairs

Just outside the hotel is this FAB facade of tilework.

Becky wanted a photo of this guys outfit

and made by my friend, Susan's company in ABQ!

On a mission to Rue de Princesse to find...
Nadine Delphine!

and Sophie Digard!
inspiring and amazing...

It was a fantastic trip, all in all.
We missed everyone, but found life pretty easy
with just 4 opinions!

Looking forward to next year, for sure!

  4. Hello, my friend,

    Your posts have been just amazing. I was away myself teaching and came home to find out what I've been missing. Oh my! you have the dearest looking friends. I sneak peeks on Pantry Violets and admire from afar your friendly group. Did you spend all of August having French adventures? How delightful!

    And now the news that you'll teach there next year, oh my goodness! What fun to look forward to!

    I wish I were close enough to pop in for a visit sometime. But so thankful for the joys of my own little world. Still, we will have to engineer a rendezvous some special day.

    Warm hugs!
