Jardin du Luxembourg

Luxembourg Garden has become my Central Park. It's great for people watching or if you just want a quiet spot to read.  There are many statues all around the park and beautiful flowers. I've visited this park twice now and I'm sure I'll make my way back before I leave.

 

See more pictures of Luxembourg here.

clouds

I have to say I love the clouds here in Paris. Maybe I don't notice the ones in New York because there's always a tall building blocking my view, but the ones in Paris are so dramatic and always changing. Now I see why many European painters captured these beautiful clouds and were not exaggerating one bit.

Notre Dame

Here are some of my iphone shots of Notre Dame. These pictures don't do justice for this beautiful cathedral. Hopefully I'll upload my pictures from my Canon this weekend and do another post with some clearer shots.

metro stops

Some of the metro stops in Paris are so pretty. I love the incorporation of the Art Nouveau style.

wine & cheese

On Michelle and Emmanuela's last day in Paris, we decided to have a proper Parisian snack. This included some fromage (cheese), pâté, salami, fruit, a baguette and of course wine. Bon appétit!
