Good news! We made it here safely! (I am a bit of a nervous flier and wasn't too sure this would happen.) The even better news is that fall is still clinging in Paris and the cold hasn't snapped too hard at our heels.
I've finally figured out the internet at our little apartment in le marais and decided that I'm going to post a few photos as we go so that I won't be overwhelmed when I get home. Funner for all, yes?
It's day two of our trip and my first impressions of Paris are #1. The end of fall is stunning. #2. The coffee here is magical.

YES! FUNNER FOR US! And glad one of you at least is keeping an old fashioned moleskin, too.
ReplyDeleteYAY MERRICK SISTERS!
So how come you guys get to rent an appartment for your stay?! We "ordinary" Europeans don't seem to think further than hotels but an appartment for the duration would be awesome!!!
ReplyDeleteHow does this work?
Lovely to follow your adventures ;)
Simply gorgeous photos, I can't wait to see more. Happy Travels!
ReplyDeleteI am new to your blog but have been waiting with baited breath for your next post! Good time for me to start following! Yes, photos please!
ReplyDeleteReally? That's good to hear. I read The Sweet Life in Paris over the summer and David Lebovitz had a whole chapter on how gross the coffee in Paris was.
ReplyDeleteEnjoy your trip!! How amazing for you both. Thanks for keeping us updated!
very nice pictures, and Paris is indeed really nice. You have captured a good part of it!
