This must be Montmartre...

We have arrived in the station...Look... it's Amelie... she's come to greet us... Bonjour Amelie! Hope you rested on the train... we're going sightseeing... many stairs to climb to the Sacre Coeur... but the view will be amazing... (I hear... I must confess... I never made it up there... next time)


It sure got late fast... late supper in the brasserie where Amelie works...

Looks like there are some open tables or we can sit outside... you decide... I'll order some wine... Long day... upstairs to Amelie's apartment... nice of her to let us stay...


OOOOH... warning... be careful to smell items in the bathroom before using them... she is silly and likes to switch foot powder (not sure that's what it is... something like that) for toothpaste...


Off to bed... WOW... is her room bright... hope we can sleep... a big day ahead of us tomorrow...

Sightseeing around Paris... Looks like we will be stuck in Paris for the weekend...

P.S. (REAL LIFE HERE) Running out of time... Child #2 will be playing in a two-day golf tournament this weekend... so I will be on the links without a paintbrush... I apologize I was not able to get all three movies to you this week... BUT there is always next weekend in Provence (VIRTUALLY) and we can all experience A Good Year!

ENJOY YOUR WEEKEND!
