Mary à Paris


Ma chère amie Mary and I met in 2007 when we found ourselves corresponding on Virtual Tourist. We have been dear friends and Paris travel buddies ever since. I found this photo from our last, but NOT OUR LAST, trip to Paris.. janvier 2011.  I love you Mar and here's to many more rendezvous à Paris!
Bises,
V

Great shot! I love this view of the tower and the wet reflections make it even nicer.

This is an aspect of Paris that is truly charming ... the glistening streets just after a rain.

A perfect shot of the gorgeous tower! I wish it were me meandering under the tower...

Them boots was made for walkin'!

You two better make room for me on the next trip now that you know I am easy to feed and go just about anywhere in intense heat

What a treasure of a photo. Mary needs to put this one in a frame. (Mary: No, you do not look like you have a club foot!)

Your new header photo is merveilleuse!

Amanda said...

Beautiful! When are you going back to Paris?

Alexa said...

Mary's lucky to have a travel buddy and good friend like you! Looks like the skies cleared just so you could get this great shot. (I'm loving the header photo too!)

Amanda said...

I forgot to add that j'adore your new banner. On July the 14th, I always wear a very patriotic french T-shirt bought at Le Printemps, but nobody gets it here (in the US).

Virginia, you are going to fill a plane with all of your blogging buddies the next time you visit Paris. Is it on the calendar yet?

Gorgeous photo! Love the reflection of Mary, the blue sky and ET on the wet pavement! Paris may be for lovers but it is also for good friends :-)

You blog is really amazing. I love Paris, damn I don't live there, but your photos just make me feel it was the case. In some, I just feel like walking through the streets of Paris.
A great thank you for this beautifull work.
