Like I said previously it really was hard for me to readjust to the Paris time. Right now I could do with a quiet do nothing weekend in Paris, but I have to go down to Nice for a couple of days. I should not complain, as Nice will probably be warmer and sunnier than Paris and because I'm going there to attend the Christening of a little niece I'm going to be the Godfather of! By the way, this is the Air France office at les Invalides. It's located in the magnificent ex Gare des Invalides, built for the 1867 world exposition.
Hope the weather is glorious and that you have a great time, Godfather (of all us bloggers too)!
ReplyDeleteThis is what happens when you're stuck late at work—you get to be first. BTW, cool shot, Eric
ReplyDeleteCongratulations! Your little niece has already good stars over her head. Very good!
ReplyDeleteBut don't stay away too long, Paris city would not like it too much!
Being named a Godparent is a show of love and respect. Congratulations!
ReplyDeleteI do think it's easier to adjust new timezones going west rather than east. You'll just have to come back here!
CDG! CDG! CDG !
ReplyDeleteMoi aussi, ET Suzy!
I really like the different intensities of light in this, from the ultra bright signage to the soft ambient light behind it. Congratulations on your new niece. May she live a charmed life.
ReplyDeleteCongratulations and have a great weekend in Nice!
ReplyDeleteI think the building which is the home of Air France is really beautiful and impressive.
Besides that I like Air France very much, I know some people who work there and they are very nice.
But it's really American Airlines who has ALL the luck cause
PHX
works there!!!
No, Eric, you shouldn't complain ;)
ReplyDelete@♥ Eiffel Tower Suzy ♥, Did you notice the Eiffel Tower in the photo? I was expecting 3 cheers from you.
ReplyDeleteWow Lois, you have good eyes. Thanks for drawing attention to it. I was intrigued by the way the colored lights are bouncing off the clouds above and now realize it is from le Tour's light display.
ReplyDeleteEric, have fun with your niece in Nice! (couldn't resist) And congratulations on being godfather her christening. Wishing you some R&R somewhere in the weekend.

If you must have a day-job, you want to have it in a building like this.
ReplyDeleteYay for you Alexa!
ReplyDeletepoor Eric, no rest for the weary...
Congratulations to you & yours & if you can, try & sneak a nap in while you are in Nice.
Did you specifically order amber in the sky to match the light in the windows?? Impressive.
ReplyDeleteCongratulations on your new little niece and goddaughter! Her parents obviously think as highly of you as we do. Enjoy your trip, Eric!
You're already the Godfather, Don Tenin!
ReplyDeletehe he Drummond, indeed he is! Made me laugh out loud, that one.
ReplyDeleteHappy times, Eric. Have a niece weekend ;)

ReplyDeleteJ'ai mis un et un ensemble et je crois que votre niece est la fille d'Arnaud? J'ai vu quelques photos et ses filles sont tres jolies.
ReplyDeleteIt is like I've had my head in the sky all day, with this picture LOL! It was raining a lot. I'd love to go to Nice and give a sweet little kiss on your sweet little niece's face, Eric.
ReplyDeleteWhen I went to my Godson Christening, last October, the mass was given by a very welcoming priest who made us participate by asking questions. One of them was to translate "parrain" and "marraine" in English and I answered proudly "Godfather" and "Godmother" which are much more significant for the Church than the French words.
To me, behind the growing relationship between a Godfather and a Godchild, is the promise to stay in touch all your life with her/him. So big.
The Godfather, eh? Mais oui. I hear Nice is nice! And I'm sure your niece is nice, too. Enjoy this beautiful event.
ReplyDeleteLois...excellent eye re: the ET, but you're the artist. ;-)
How lovely, a weekend in Nice for your niece. I'm sure you had a lovely time and I love the glow of this picture!
