Après la pluie

Jardin du Palais Royal after a Sunday morning deluge.

Mon Palais Royal

What better photo to end my stay in Paris than one from my first day in Paris last Wednesday.  Peter laughingly calls the Palais Royal  "mine" because I never seem to tire of it.  We stopped at this fountain, put our feet up and relaxed for a few minutes that afternoon.  I was grateful for a little rest as I'd been awake for 24+ hours.  It's hard to say goodbye to Paris but as always,  I'm grateful for the precious time here.  Mary and I will fly home Wednesday.....le sigh!

Les Chaises - Palais Royal

Encore une fois vous demander? Certainement! At the gardens of the Palais Royal a photographer can find endless delights. Forgive me for returning again and again. On my last visit we stayed very close and of course there was la neige to make it even more delightful. This photo was taken last summer.

I've had a fascination for these chairs you find in many parks in Paris. They are so condusive to sitting, reading, napping? I'd love four for my patio back home!

Today I again join the Monochrome Weekend group of great photographers. Have a look here.
