Rooftop Memories


My apologies...my internet connection went down so I was unable to post this until this morning. I threw in a bonus pic!

Our Paris trip has come to a close and I am doing a bit of reflecting my holiday. I went through my endless amounts of photos and pulled out some of my favorites. They had one thing in common. Almost every one was of some sort of architecture. If you notice in several of my Photos of the Day, I look up quite a bit to find my inspiration....here was no different. I think I could have spent my 72 hours in France looking at the buildings only stopping to eat. I am pretty sure I had a couple of narrow misses with cars and bikers while I was "taking in the scenery"...There is something very nostalgic and warm about aura of the buildings there. I think it has to do with the sloped rooftops. They blend in so beautifully with the sky and they add so much character to the neighborhoods. Here is a picture taken out of our hotel room window...

Just as I remember it too. I needed to spend more time in Paris; 2 1/2 days is not enough! I am sure you are enjoying your visitors. Have they kept you busy running here and there? We miss them; chuch was not the same this morning without their smiling faces. Tell them hello for me.

I miss Paris too. I go back frequently (my husband was born there) and just like you, each time I find something else that amuses my senses. Lucky you!
