PARIS at EASTER

by ViajesdelMundo - last update: Apr 26, 2009

BLESSED WITH PERFECT WEATHER!

HEIGHT OF CHERRY BLOSSOMS IN PARIS
MY 4th VISIT TO PARIS, AND THE SECOND AT EASTER. MY FIRST TIME WAS IN 1977 WHEN I BROUGHT MY DEAR MOTHER WITH ME AND WE, TOO, ARRIVED ON GOOD FRIDAY. SO IT WAS A TIME OF SPECIAL REMINISCING, AS SHE WAS VERY CLOSE TO ME AND PASSED AWAY SUDDENLY 6 YEARS AGO (but it seems much less than that!).

JUST PRIOR TO OUR DEPARTURE FOR OUR TRIP, THE WEATHER WEBSITE ADVISED THAT PARIS THE ENTIRE WEEK WOULD HAVE HIGH RISK OF RAIN AND BE QUITE CHILLY, SO WE WERE DOUBLY HAPPY THAT WE ONLY HAD A SMALL SHOWER LATE ONE DAY AND THE WEATHER WAS MOSTLY WARM, ALTHO OVERCAST A LITTLE (keeping it perfect for all our walking!).

I WILL POST A FEW TIPS BUT NOT TRY TO BE A GUIDE FOR PARIS.

WE DID HAVE THE ENJOYMENT OF MEETING 2 VTers!!
PEDRO, 'PEDMAR', HAS ALREADY POSTED A FEW PHOTOS AND NICE BLURB ABOUT OUR EVENING TOGETHER OVER DINNER, DURING WHICH HIS VERY SWEET WIFE ALSO GAVE US HER TIME, EVEN THOUGH SHE HAD TO WORK THE NEXT DAY.
ADDITIONALLY, WE HAD AN EVENING WITH 'WISE23GIRL' AND HER HUSBAND, FROM QUEENSLAND, WHO HAD A BRIEF TIME IN PARIS AFTER THEIR FABULOUS CRUISE AND PRIOR TO GOING ON TO LONDON.

TREVOR AND I HIT IT OFF WITH BOTH COUPLES AND THESE EVENINGS CERTAINLY MADE OUR WEEK IN PARIS THAT MUCH MORE MEMORABLE.

POSTED ARE A COUPLE PHOTOS WITH 'PEDMAR', BUT I CAN'T BELIEVE THAT NEITHER MARG NOR MYSELF THOUGHT OF TAKING PHOTOS OF OUR TIME TOGETHER, DESPITE THE FACT THAT I OF COURSE HAD MY CAMERA RIGHT THERE! (don't get over 60!)
