    Hi Linda, you’ve written lovely words of condolences to the families of those French people who didn’t make it home last night. Of course, like you and Bernie, Neil and I feel so sad and sickened by such tragedy in our beloved France. The French people have had enough! But imagine how the Syrian people feel.

    Great job L&B!. Art, history, architecture, public pissoir’s, giant macaroons — you touched a lot of bases. Your energy and enthusiasm made it all good fun.
    Thank you.

    My heart breaks for all those in France effected by the latest act of violence, as well as the world at large. This is a very troubling time that seems to be dominated by hate, intolerance and violence everywhere you look, including our own country.
    Thank you for sharing the photos of France’s celebration of its independence.

    What great photos Bernie got! Thanks for sharing. The Champs Elysées filled with people is how it looked when we were here one year for New Year’s Eve.
