Anyway... Just for you (well and those who will read this comment!) you'll find it on <A HREF="http://www.dailyphotoblog.com" REL="nofollow">www.dailyphotoblog.com</A> <BR/>Now the tricky part: it's a beta version so everything is not perfect. That is why it's still password protected. So once you're prompted for a login and password type: login: me - Password: ILoveCDPB! (case sensitive and don't forget the exclamation point)<BR/><BR/>BV. I love the "Au pair" passage. And "tu ne crois pas si bien dire" when you talk about little parisians. Wait a couple of days...<BR/><BR/>Happy birthday to your sis from Paris Ujima. You sound like such a lovely lady all the time, I am sure it runs in the family!<BR/><BR/>Marie-josé, I'll show more of it soon...<BR/><BR/>Richard, I did not have my Paris daily Photo T-shirt on, otherwise you could have spoted me!<BR/><BR/>Marie, I am not shy with taking people pics but I know it's not really leagl, so I try to pay attention...<BR/><BR/>Kpgallant, don't cry over a TV show! cafe du marché, I think is where I had a coffee with Rodney (from Aliso viejo daily photo) when he came to Paris.<BR/><BR/>He Jeff, long time no see.

It is an escape from the hustle of rue Rivoli and Place de la Theatre (oops, not called that anymore, it's our Pissarro painting I'm remembering). I have a photo I'm proud of: deux femmes Parisiennes in this exact spot, with their boots on the fountain edge, the water shooting up, eating lunch before returning to work in the shops.<BR/>Next year: hmmm. The Vatican three days, Florence (the Uffizi) three days, a few days in Provence, then end up in Paris.

Unfortunately they are making me quite nostalgic for Paris and my next trip won't be until the Spring of 2007...and a weekend of R Steeves travel specials about Paris all this past weekend on PBS didn't help either. I could just cry when it shows him eating at Cafe du Marche on the rue Cler, a favorite spot of mine for many years.

And for some reason, out of the traditional tourist tour.<BR/>Surrounded by lovely old classic buildings such as <I>La Comedie Francaise</I>, on sunny afternoons you can spot little parisians playing in the sandbox 2 meters from this fountain.

We came home to 3 feet of snow :(. I wonder, how cold is cold for a Paris winter?<BR/><BR/>Michael, yesterday you said:"I recommend everyone live in a different country for at least a few years to appreciate your own culture as well as the other's. You discover a lot about yourself."<BR/><BR/> We spent 15 days in Europe, between Rome, Barcelona and Paris and before we left it never occured to me how fish-out-of-water I would feel when not able to speak the local language, no matter what country. It gave me a much fuller appreciation to others who may be in *my* country and not able to read a sign in a restaurant, watch a tv show or communicate a need or want. I feel humbled by the experience. Parisians were incredibly quick to speak English when they knew I was doing my best to butcher their beautiful language and were exceptionally helpful and gracious.<BR/><BR/>Sorry...I'm wandering.
