Bye bye Paris!
That's it, after 2 weeks vacation in Paris, I have to go... It's been wonderful, I hope you all received my postcard and, who knows, I may send you another one from the South (which I doubt, because apparently, where I'm going there is no Internet access - how am I going to survive?! Don't worry I won't be away very long, I just need to "recharge my batteries" as we say in French (recharger mes batteries). Of course, as usual, there is no program interruption, there will still be a new photo every day on PDP. Be good while I'm way ;-)

Did you have a photo-snapping passenger on the back of your scooter to take this cool shot? Emjoy the rest of your vacances, Eric!
ReplyDeleteOr you could "enjoy" them! Hope you return with batteries well-charged. Is that really the expression in French? thought a battery was a "pile" and a "batterie" was a set of drums.
ReplyDeleteAwwwwwwwwwwwwwww, that's a sweet photo and very appropriate.
ReplyDeleteBon vent, happy trails!
"Batterie:" same word for the set of drums, and also for the little Duracell thingy with a plus on one end and a minus on the other ;)
ReplyDeleteFantastic shot, Eric! Love it. Enjoy your rest, do. Have a great time and know that we'll keep the place in order while you're gone lol. Good thing Guille's away really, she'd have had us partying and moving all the furniture. LOL
ReplyDeleteOh, I don't know, Lynn. Maybe we could have our own virtual party anyway, just like we did when they had that "picnic" in Paris, remember? ;) I crashed my computer leaving all these comments but it was worth it ;)
ReplyDeleteI'm glad you're using the proper protection while on vacation.
ReplyDeleteA fun portrait it is!
ReplyDeleteWhat fun to see you and your scooter out and about in Paris! Sounds like you had lots of fun in your own city while on vacation. I hope you were following all traffic laws and that it wasn't the long arm of the law taking this photo. Have fun down South!
ReplyDeleteEnjoy the last half of your vacation! No internet access sounds like a nice idea especially since Tomate has suggested a virtual party! What you don't know won't hurt us. Okay, Tomate I'm in!
ReplyDeleteDid someone say A PARTY while Eric is away? Yippee!
ReplyDeleteCute self-photo Eric, be safe and look all directions...
Jeff ~ What protection are you talking about?
I think it's really funny that you tagged the photo "unusual!"
ReplyDeleteHave fun!
Oooohhhh, that does it. I must, must kiss you now.
ReplyDeleteMmmmmmmWahhhh! 8^)
Oh dear Eric I missed so many pictures!.. Not my fault though, its hard to find a good internet access here.
ReplyDeleteI like this pix of you. But please, try to look the road and not your passenger!! ;)
Bonnes vacances, without internet and everything: real vacations!
Y besos a todos de Mexico... I miss you all!!
Have a wonderful time!
ReplyDeleteGreaaaat photo Eric!!!! Have fun in the south!!!
ReplyDeleteWe'll try to be good while you're away!
;)
Ooooo, how did you take this great profile shot, Eric? Good to see you taking off for fun. Enjoy your down time and the relaxing atmosphere in the south. Oooo la la, you are receiving cyber kisses from Elaine! That'll help recharge your batteries I bet! How inspiring your protrait is! :-)
ReplyDelete-Kim
What could beat two weeks in Paris? Where could Eric go that has no or limited internet?
ReplyDeleteOMG! You're coming to Tinytown Texas?? I won't be back for two more weeks!! Stop being where I'm not- I'll never get to meet you!
ps. have fun. being disconnected isn't all bad. ;-)
Have fun, Eric! We'll miss you...
ReplyDeleteAre you trying to tell us that you're heading for Lubéron on your scooter ?....
ReplyDeleteTrès bonnes vacances, bien méritées !
Attention aux coups de soleil, et à l'effet nocif des petits apéros au pastis sur le régime ! LOL !!
Awesome photo,Eric - I love it!
ReplyDeleteIts lovely that you'll be going someplace unplugged. My batteries are always much better recharged in those places (and even tho my mind tells me I'm missing all sorts of vital info, it always turns out that none of it really is).
I'm going to be a bad influence: Cats away; PDP mice should play!!! ; }
*cat's*
ReplyDeleteHave a wonderful holiday, Eric.
ReplyDeletetomate, from cali, gramma ann, & carrie --
ReplyDeleteYou guys are a bunch of troublemakers! P.S. -- Count me in.
Roadtrip!!! Safe travels my friend. Recharge those batteries. It works for me. ;-)
ReplyDeleteHave a beautiful week in the South, Eric !
ReplyDeleteYou'll have a super weather. Plus the good food there and a little of 'rosé' from time to time ;)
I can almost smell the lavender perfume from here :)
Very funny photo, very nice !
Allez c'est parti WOOOOW brooooom brooooooooooom brooooooooooooooooom:))
Bon vacance! Have a wonderful time in the lovely south!
ReplyDeleteBonnes vacances, Eric ! Reposes toi bien !
ReplyDeleteAlexa, the difference between "une batterie" and "une pile" is that you can recharge la batterie when it's empty, while la pile must thrown away (sorry: recycled!).
You find "batteries" in your car, mobile phone, laptop, "piles" in flashight or games...
Adorable and à propos self-portrait. Next time, rent a place with wifi. We need our little internet fixes when on vacation too. Relax, put your feet up, enjoy the scenery, the food, l'heure de l'apéro, a good book and some good company (we hope)!
ReplyDeletelol Jeff!
ReplyDeleteTomate that's a fab idea. Eric will never know. Ok, so I brought some champagne to the party - it's over there on the side. Help yourselves! ;D
I brought macarons. Get some before Monica finds out. ;-)
ReplyDeleteI love it, Eric. Have a wonderful time.
ReplyDeleteI'm a day late for the send-off but safe scooting and happy holidays, Eric!
