Boat Tour Along The Seine






The steps where we had our picnic a few days earlier. 


Norte-Dame in the distance. 






Our boat ramp had a sculpture of a T-Rex skeleton. 


Back at our Airbnb enjoying a bottle of wine we purchased at one of the local shops. Merlot is my favorite and I couldn’t resist the adorable hedgehog logo.

Markets, Montmartre, and The Sacré-Coeur


Jenny enjoying the morning view.




Currants at the corner produce market.



Lovely dresses at the Paris Flea Market with some equally fashionable Parisians. 


I found these adorable prints at the Paris Flea Market (currently displayed in my living room).


The unique terrain of Montmartre.


A colorful little bistro. 



The first time I ever saw a pomegranate tree was on Montmartre. 


The highest point in Paris.


The Sacré-Coeur Basilica.








Love locks clustered on the gates.










Eating at Les Oiseaux and enjoying the beautiful fall colors outside. 


My flavorful blue cheese salad and heavenly chocolate dessert.

London Back To Paris





Our brief peek into Harrod’s Department Store. 



Walking thru Hyde Park.




The Gardeners Cottage.




On the Eurostar back to Paris. 


The English countryside zooming by. 


We had been too busy to stop for lunch and were hungry by the time we had gotten on the Eurostar. It was nice surprise that I had forgotten that our return trip came with a meal. We had seasoned chicken, potato salad, a roll, a chocolate cookie, and an almond cake.



At our second Airbnb in Paris, just in time for the full moon to be visible over the rooftops.
