Paris. Before going to Venice and after Venice me et brigitte walked thru all the passages of Paris. The passages are full of nice boutiques. Lovely little cafes to take a little dinner and snacks, teas and coffee's and cakes. Shop for nice souviners. Nice toy stores in the passages. you can never get bored walking about Paris. There is always something to stop you that says" stop and look at me". Paris has the most beautifull windows for window shopping. Just wonder around with no direction and beauty is right in front of you. it may be a beautifull cake it may be a pair of socks it could be a basket of cherries but what ever may be you will see beauty within thee... Hope you enjoy some of my photos. More to come ... read more
