Hello dear friends! Yesterday I boarded a plane bound for the South of France. I will be gone for almost two weeks. The last three days of the trip will be spent in Paris. To prepare I reviewed the posts All About France that I have written previously. Incredibly I had a month’s worth of posts!
I thought you might enjoy revisiting these past posts or discover them for the first time while I am gone.
I cannot wait to return and share all of my new adventures with you. Until then, there is always Instagram.
Au revior!

Laura, You are probably just waking up as I write this. Ohhhh, I wish I was there. I just read your 2014 post on traveling to Paris alone. I’ve done that twice and it was fabulous. It is a bit scary a few days before one leaves,because of the language, but after that, it is so beautiful and fascinating that I was glad I was alone . I met people and had experiences that I would never have had if I would have been with a traveling companion. There is the drawback of not going out alone at night in the City of Lights , although, from the apartment window, I saw many women walking alone at 11:00 p.m. The metro is easy to use and is charming during the day with commuters and people playing the accordion, etc….not so much at night when alone. And, yes, I was pick-pocketed by a young girl (maybe 10 or 12 years old) that I saw sitting with a Roma woman on the steps when I entered the Metro. As I stepped onto the train, she was behind me, she pushed me hard and when I reached up to grab the metal pole, she got UNDER my long winter coat, untied the knot of my velvet shoulder purse and stole my wallet. It was timed so perfectly that when I turned to see who pushed me, the train doors opened at a stop and she stepped out backwards! But, I did get to spend an hour with a very good-looking (I mean, movie star-good-looking.) detective. They were both marvelous trips.
I’m sure you are enjoying your time in France!
I’m giving all the blogs I visit fair warning that I might be real scarce as we sort out internet in the country. It will be satellite and just not sure how it will work for blogging. Cheers.
Such fun to see these again! I can’t wait for October 4 when I land there!
