Bienvenue á V's Fantasy World: IF I could live in Paris, and IF I could have a car there, I'd have a cute red Fiat with an orange license plate just like this one! :)

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.

I have such a thing for Fiat Bambinos thanks to Merci {as you well know, V} but I'll let you have the red one and seek out a different colour for myself. :)
Perfect for the series, V - even more perfect would be a red Citroën 2CV!.
In the still very Italian North Beach area of San Francisco is a Fiat 500 painted the red/white/green of the Italian flag. «Louis» needs to get a photo of that!
Or maybe a french blue Renault 4CV id a black Citroen traction avant is not available.
Thoughts become things...bonne chance!
Looks like South Pasadena to me.
WV: aptiv - Is that French?
Très mignonne indeed... I like the MAW, makes me think of Bob Dylan singing, It's alright ma...
La grenouille had one of these little tiny Fiats long ago, which she referred to affectionately as a "pot de yaourt"...
many years ago I had a car like this, it was yellow .... wonderful memories of youth...I'm italian
I love those little Fiats, but there are so many others that I love equally as much. You know we bought a Smart Car, right? http://www.opendiary.com/entryview.asp?authorcode=A486227&entry=20289&mode=date
Oh, girl! Wait until I post my red Volvo shot. You may change your mind... ;-)
