Countdown to Paris ~ Special memories

Each week I will post my favorite photos of Paris and the rest of France until I am once again in the City of Lights at the end of July.

A few photos that evoke special memories of Paris

I find some Flamingo friends in the Metro

A young woman casts a critical eye on a Rodin statue in his museum.

Le Consulat–the proof is in the pudding…er…moules et frites

A great combo–my favorite car on my favorite Avenue des Champs-Élysées, available for tours

Countdown to Paris – Tour Eiffel

Each week I will post my favorite photos of Paris and the rest of France until I am once again in the City of Lights at the end of July.

I begin with the Tour Eiffel in all its colors and moods and dining at the Jules Verne restaurant which I hope to do again this summer

I love Paris in the springtime
