Childhood friend Llynn and I took the train to Giverny and rode bikes from the train station into Giverny to visit Monet’s house and gardens.

Me and my “buds” from the Paris American Academy on the Canal. Sunset from my kitchen window in Le Marais.  

On the Canal. Having Fun!

 

 

Walking sticks at Galerie Fayet (since 1909) in Passage Jouffroy. The store was like walking into a shop Harry Potter might frequent on Diagon Alley.

 

Monday lunch at restaurant Mini-Palais in the Grand Palais with Paris writer, jazz singer, tour guide and flaneur Terrance Gelenter (on the right with restaurant manager ‘René). 

Tuesday morning markets. At the Fromager I was scolded for taking the butter off the shelf by myself – but I’ll gladly pay penance because French butter is to die for. And bacon sliced to order …need I say more?

Parc Monceau, outside the Louvre, Musée des Arts Décoratifs and cheeseburger in the Jardin des Tuileries.

Although I have visited Paris every year since 2010, I started my extended stays in June 2016.

The 6 o’clock bells on Notre Dame outside my bedroom window in the Latin Quarter.
