A VERY full day in Paris. Peter and I walked about 500 miles and he will verify that I'm sure. It's late and I'm tired so here you have a nice little collection of door handle/knockers I found today.

Paris je t'aime
I fell in love with Paris in March 2007. It was as the French say, le coup de foudre : love at first sight. As a result of that trip, my photography took another direction. Since that time I have pursued a career of sorts in photography and dreamed of returning to the City of Light. November 2008 found me strolling the streets of Paris once again. My first visit I was so overwhelmed with the incredible beauty of the city, I photographed it as a "tourist". In 2008 I returned and I looked at the city with more of a photographer's eye. I wanted to capture the unique, the small details, and oh yes - the people! This blog was started as a photo diary of that trip, but I have been most fortunate to return to the city j'adore 15 times since. Each time I leave, I wipe a tear and start planning my list for the next trip. Paris may well be a moveable feast, but I think it's best savored in person! Someone told me that once you have been to Paris, you will leave a piece of your heart. I left mine right there, but I brought home some wonderful memories. It is my pleasure to share them with you.

What lovely knockers!
Marley, are you referring to the photos?
I just burst out laughing when I read Karen's comment :)
Virginia, I hope you have THE perfect pair of walking shoes for this trip! It looks like Peter is going to have you put them to the test.
Love the photos. Can you believe it, my word verification is actually a FRench word: dites!
Mine too! Shefin, as in, for virg, la nuit c'est fin.
Marley and Karen, I knew it, I just knew it!!HA Marley it was bound to be you or Wayne. Anyone else re-member the scene in "Young Frankenstein"?? AH, I'll bet you or Mr. Earl will remember!
Harriet, Since my luggage was found but not yet delivered (grrrrr), I'm wearing out a pair that I bought here last month when everything else failed!
Lovely! Another of a vanishing specie here.
Interesting...which airline did you use?
I would not let Marley or Wayne anywhere near your lovely knockers if I was you!
Went we last went to Montpellier our luggage arrived the day after by taxi straight to the door. That would not have happened in the UK.They would just expect you to collect it after they lost it.
Hello everyone: I have a computer virus and will not be blogging till I dont know when: Keep the faith

Whew, it's fixed I think. What a scare. One photo only from our outing today!
