Love the cape!
Travel well. Enjoy new sights. Bring fresh new stories to tell. I love your stories in words and pictures.

Coveted? You mean you didn't drag the card catalogue all the way home to Paris? LOL
Come on! Surely your shoulder felt better by then.
I guess you can't take everything home, can you...

I love going on your shopping excursions. Do you stumble upon them or do you set out to find antique shops in every city you visit?
I've always loved the "Grooves" storefront.
I hope you are having a grand time.

You should consider doing a whole book of windows, they are superb!

Fantastic windows and images! I love the repetition of pattern in some of them. Of course, I love the marionette figure. There is something poignant about marionettes at rest that really touches my heart.

Hope you're having a lovely time away -- I'm tickled to see those photos of Salmagundi, one of my favourite places to shop for Christmas stocking stuffers -- did you get downstairs to see the old apothecary cabinets with magical surprises in every drawer?

Wonderful captures.
