Hi Everyone! Thank you all for being so patient with me the past few months. I had emergency surgery so have been out of touch for a while but am recovering well, in spite of a setback here and there, but I promise I will get y'all up to speed on the past few months.
It is absolutely GLORIOUS here in Paris. I don't remember a spring this spectacular in the past 3 years. Today it was 80F degrees and each day has been more beautiful than the last. The entire city is a-bloom, an exploding rainbow of petals and leaves and everyone is outside soaking up, embracing, clutching the sunshine. This picture of Notre Dame I took on Easter Sunday walking home along the Seine after Easter mass at the American Cathedral. It was one of those days that makes you glad to be alive.
Happy Spring! :)
GORGEOUS! I wish to be there. I'm clicking my heels, but nothing is happening.

I hope you are on the mend!
But I'm happy to hear spring is glorious in Paris. I will be there in 3 weeks!
I hope the beauty holds!

It's so fun to be in beautiful cities when the weather is lovely! I'm off to London in less than a week -- I hope I get a treat (a few rays of sun at least!)

Laura:
As a Parisian, I very much agree with you that Spring is the best time in Paris, especially may 1st and le muguet...
BTW, why do you love Paris so much?
