Saint Sulpice


Looking back on our trip, I"m so glad we stopped at Saint Sulpice again. It turned out to be our last day and it was a good one.

Café With a View

 On a warmer day, we would have been right up front enjoying the view of Saint-Sulpice.

Sunday Church Series, Saint-Sulpice


This newly restored church is even more lovely. I hadn't been inside since 2009. What a difference.

Sunday Church Series - Église Saint-Sulpice


Saint-Sulpice on a spectacular blue sky day in Paris! I was on my way to Luxembourg Gardens and always like this route that goes by this beautiful church.

Le photographe



While my friends were having a look inside Saint Sulpice, I wandered around the fountain people watching and photographing. I spotted this interesting man doing the same thing! He was intently watching an artist painting some art fair scenery nearby. I snapped this one before he noticed me. I then told him in broken French and sign language that he had a wonderful face. I got a smile. I'll share that shot one day soon.

We Like Paris When It Drizzles......



but we don't LOVE it! Enough is enough. It's hard to carry shopping bags, cameras etc. AND an umbrella. Time for some sunshine. The last two days my friend Mary from Cincinnati has been here, and we've covered some territory. She is a Paris Pro and has walked our feet off. Yesterday she and I ran a marathon as I shared on yesterday's post. Today Melissa and the kiddos joined us and we schlepped around in the rain and did a little more shopping. I regret that the planned blogger meeting didn't materialize. Chalk that up to good intentions and bad phones. Alice , maybe we'll see each other before I leave France!!

Today, a sampling of what we've seen and done the last two days.
Antiques Faire in front of Eglise Saint-Suplice
Mary showed me her favorite site at Montparnasse Cemetery , in the rain of course.

A quick trip through the Henri Cartier-Bresson Foundation was a treat. It has a small exhibition of his work and currently a larger exhibiton of Jim Goldberg's work, but I had to make the pilgrimage!

A trip to Gerard Mulot for macarons was a delight. We made it out the door before we ate one on the street. Did you hear the groans of delight?? ( There were more in the sack but that's all that was left when I took this photo)
No outside dining today!
