Christmas, Christmas Everywhere
Bonjour mes amis,
It’s Christmas Eve and I’m sure everyone is quite busy with preparations for tomorrow’s big day. To family, we miss you and would love to hear from you. To friends, celebrate the joys of the season with passion and lots of wonderful memories, food, gifts and and recognition of the true meaning.
Merry Christmas in French is Joyeux Noël and the streets are filled with busy shoppers. Yesterday was a cold but nice day starting with sunshine. We ate at a new spot for us in St. Catherine’s Square, did a little shopping for our Christmas lunch and then journeyed out to La Defense to see the very nice and quite large Christmas market. I’m guessing that it’s the largest in Paris and had entire sections for Quebec and Alsace. Enjoy the photos. It was packed!
Blessings to all,
L & B
P.S. One last thing I’d like to see before we depart…some snow.

Wow the Christmas market looks great! I hope you are both continuing to recover from the cold. We have a light day today…a few last minute presents to wrap and will start packing for our visit in ATL tomorrow. Tonight we will do the early candlelight service at church and then do our traditional Christmas Eve sushi dinner at Osaka (where we all met up for lunch earlier this year). Merry Christmas! Love to you and Bernie…

Thanks for all the la defense photos! It is fun to photograph . The market looks amazing. So glad you both felt up to going out there to see it. Really, an easy ride on line 1! Merry Christmas to you and Bernie. I’m wishing you a white Christmas or maybe a white New Year!
