Saturday afternoon, after walking all over the Marais, Peter and I met my sweet friend and fabulous photographer Carla Coulson for coffee at Le Voltiguer on rue Frances Bourgeois. We enjoyed hearing about new book, Chasing the Dream, and her travels to Italy and Australia this year as well as some exciting ideas she's working on. The only downside was that husband Francesco could not join us! (If you've seen him on her blog you'll understand,) Mary joined us before we parted and I was able to get this cute photo of the group.
Today, Genie (Paris and Beyond), Holly, Peter (Peter's Paris) and Owen ( Magic Lantern Show) and I are touring Saint-Denis , and Mary is "doing" the Louvre. The weather is still gorgeous. Sunday it was colder but blue skies are still shining on Paris!

Great photo ... Mary looks fabulous! My fondest regards to you, Mary and Peter .... Missing all the fun you are having!!!
How great to be able to meet up with friends and to exchange ideas, catch up and enjoy time exploring Paris. Am I allowed to be just a tad envious?
So happy for you and your good times with friends.
Wishing you continued happiness and exploring.

wonderful !
I feel like I personally know Carla, Peter and you..
I agree that 'his gorgeousness' not being there was definitely a minus.
You picked a beautiful corner in the Marais with the Muju shop in the background.
You also picked the right time to come, weatherwise... we have more or less the same weather here .. so happy the sun is shining for your visit.
Next time I have to come down and meet you and some of the Paris blogger or you simply have to explore a little more of what's above Paris.
Have fun!

Blue skies are shining on your hearts when you meet good friends!
Smiling friends make Paris sunnier . Have a wonderful time and photo-treasure-hunt.
So much fun for you, and for me, finally, a chance to put faces on names I see daily posted out there, in cyberspace. You have been meeting with some favorite people of mine, lucky lady! Veronique (French Girl in Seattle)
So great to put faces to names Virginia. Will you please eat some pastries pour moi, actually that would be good then I won't have to work them off haha!
Hope the blue skies stay with you for your entire trip. It looks like a lot of fun.
Peter is looking great. His vacation in Spain must have been good for him.
Une jolie publication... C'est si bon l'amitié.
Gros bisous
You guys are having more fun than mortals are supposed to have.
What is that on Peter's face?! Looks like y'all are having fun.
I so envy you this day. Peter, the delicious Peter, of course and Carla. I adore Carla's photography. She is one generous lady too with her photography advice. I learn a ton from her. Plan on buying her recent book. Have her first two and adore them.

Hooray, I'm so happy for you, V! What a highlight. Carla is such a wonderful ambassador for Australia, and for following your intuition.
Peter est toujours aussi photogénique.
Today you're coming home with a suitcase of fun, happy memories and 3 million digital photographs! I'm sure you had a wonderful time 'a Paris, V de B!
Je t'embrasse
