That was great and funny! I’ll have to remember these when I go back.
I LOVED Paris when I visited a couple of summers ago. The trip was too short and I must get back someday. This really makes me want to make it happen.
I love lists like this. Makes me feel like I was there.
Thank you.
I really enjoyed this TT. I have never been to Paris but I have always thought it would be a beautiful place to visit.
Your TT-confirms that for me
Thanks for stopping by my blog.
Thanks Maribeth:)
P.S. I did take a year of French too. I always remember J’tem or mademoiselle
Your TT — most of your entire blog in fact — makes me long to go back to Paris again. I went to Pere Lachaise cemetery. I didn’t bother with Morrison’s grave but I did see where Oscar Wilde was buried and a few others. I long to sit outside a bistro with a glass of red and a good book again.
Must…go…to Paris
The creepy basements and cellars are very interesting. Underground mazes, spooky catacombs, and stinky sewers! I need to go there!!
Thanks for the pictures. Great stuff
