Table et Tabouret



As we strolled down from Montmartre one afternoon,  Peter pushed a door, Mary and I followed close behind, ( she and I are quite brave when we have Peter to do the 'splaining in French if we get caught)  and voilà, a charming little apartement courtyard.  It had one of the tackiest *Christmas trees that we all agreed we'd ever seen.  All was not lost however, many nice photo ops were spotted.   Here's one!

* and oui, you'll have to wait till next Christmas season to see the tree! :)

    Very atmospheric, V. And having someone else to do the 'splaining is always handy.

    How nice to have Peter along to encourage you into those 'forbidden' places.

    I like surprise and this is a very nice one. A pity we have to wait so much for the tackiest tree in Paris!

    You and Mary could be Lucy and Ethel with Peter as "Ricky" doing the 'splaining - hah! Love this little vignette... who would suspect that there is a tacky-tree nearby...
