    Please have Tim and Paul bring back a couple of cans of Cream da Elephant in tomato sauce. Aigle de Guerre!

      Oui, oui, monsieur! We talked about you all day, especially at lunch. We ate at a restaurant that was part of the Mosque of Paris. Really an experience but very good!! Look for pics.

    Today was a good day for your pictures, I couldn’t decide on a favorite. Somebody is really developing a good eye. Reflections in windows and water, looking through windows, streetlights, and more – all good. Speaking of good pictures – we enjoyed viewing John Dersham’s collection photographs of Alabama that were on display at Huntsville Botanical Gardens a 2 or 3 weeks ago. If they are still there, your Huntsville friends might want to check them out. Please pass along to Paula our thanks for the great job she did at the Huntsville Botanical Gardens. It’s a great fun place that stands out and above in many ways.

    Beautiful Paris shots! Loved all the light! You just have to catch it when you can between the clouds.

    Tell Paula and Tim to be prepared for the never slowing down Spalla and Verdier. They are truly in for a royal treat, as witnessed by the Ludwigs visit. Oh those night shots! Gorgeous. And the elephant is PERFECT! Borough luggage down from attic this morning- starting to lay out stuff and going to bed earlier and earlier.🤞🏻

    Love the header photo (and we must have been REALLY close as we were also by Hôtel de Ville last night!).

    Well done to your friends for their first day in Paris and look forward to your post about today. Great weekend weather for gardens and strolling and Paris the L&B way yay! My belle-fille’s parents walked all over yesterday and said they were hot in the sun and cold in the shade 🙂 C’est Paris!

      Yes, about the temps. I nearly froze this morning and then hot in the afternoon.
