paris

My husband loves Paris, even in the rain. He first took me there in 2009 when our children were young. Paris is a city of artists and dreamers, where the old meets the new and people on the streets are relaxed yet very sophisticated.

The pastries in Paris are the best in the world. Everything is made fresh daily.  We enjoyed chocolate and pistachio croissants, fruit tarts, baguettes of course, and my personal favorite, meringue.

The parks in Paris are so beautiful and expansive. Children sail boats in manmade lakes and ride old fashioned merry-go-rounds. People relax in the sun on wooden benches and old men play chess.

The museums in Paris are places to get lost in. Be sure to visit the main ones such as the Louvre, the Musee d' Orsay, and the Musee Rodin, but also the smaller ones such as the Musee Marmotton Paris.

  2. I'm a lazy traveler, that really sounds even worse printed out. However, reading of your Paris experience does get excitement going. All the scenes from French films and you confirm it!
