I was missing Paris, and your second to last photo - Quai de la Tournelle - did it for me. Really took me there. Merci. Buckets.

Ah yes, I am missing Paris. And if I wasn't, I sure would be after viewing your photos.

I don't want to be so vain as to hope you might have been thinking a wee bit of me and how I'm missing Paris when you posted these, but oh! I am, and these are wonderful!
Posted by: jeanie | 23 July 2009 at 22:28

Next time you have a warm croissant or divine brie cheese, please think of me here in the flatlands wishing I were having a latte at a sidewalk cafe in gay Paree.

What time did you get up for God's sake. There's not a soul around and yes of course I miss Paris :(

Your beautiful pictures only make me more excited to visit Paris in September. I can't wait. Last time we stayed in St. Germaine, but this time we will be in Marais. I would love to have a cup of tea with you if you have time.

Tara,
I didn't know I was missing Paris until I saw your photos! They are stunning. I'll be going there for the first time in May 2010. 40 years from when I first planned on making the pilgrimage. 'Twas a dream deferred. Thank you for the inspiration.
Posted by: Mary | 21 July 2009 at 02:39
Paris is beauty! :)
