Bonjour!

We took the Eurostar to Paris this morning so cool to get on a train go under the British Channel and be in Paris in 2 hours!, love it.

We are staying near the Sacre-Coeur, on a lovely quiet street surrounded by bakeries, cheese shops and restaurants foodie heaven but its not cheap eek!

Here are some snaps of a bakery we had coffee and cake in and this guy was doing amazing tricks with a football at the Sacre Coeur and even climbed the lamp post and was spinning the ball!




Paris street entertainment!







Love from Paris!!!

  6. Oh my....I have not traveled much but my husband and I went to Paris after the son was one years old....just the two of us..for a glorious ten days. I soaked in the sights....sketching building cornices and statues....sitting on old chipped benches with local old men who smoked and smiled and gossiped. Visiting bakeries and leaving with paper wrapped goodies to eat in the hotel room while I gazed out the window at life in the street market below...sigh....enjoy!

  16. Enjoy Paris, I love it in February. If you plan on going to the Eiffel tower, aim to go at nightfall and take the Metro to the Trocadero...then walkk on the square overlooking the Eiffel tower...the view is stunning. Enjoy yourself. See if you can find some tasty macaroons too :-)
