Paris - 1st day


We got to Paris, my dream and it looked like any other airport anyplace else I have been...just so surreal I think and say no really was I there? I definitely will be back and definitely there is so much more I did not get to do and see that I will.
I am sorry I have been so bad about blogging so much in the real world going on but I must say this escape of blog land is incredible. I hope you enjoy my journey as much as I have.
getting familiar with our "Metro" stop No.7 Monge

This was some of the architecture in our area around our hotel...

As we walked the neighborhood in back of our hotel I looked up and saw this old "bowling" painting up high on the side of a home. I am always used to looking up in New York and there it was. Oh to be able to pick that off and take it home..so old shabby chic!

On our way to Eat we ran into Napoleon...umm a tall Napoleon.

We went to the Budah Bar the first evening. I had made reservations 3 months in advance. I know in Paris the first night and eating Sushi at the Buddha Bar? Was a Saturday night we were in Paris wanted to be cool and cool we were! The place was packed with beautiful people. The clothes were so chic...oolala. Well it was beautiful but very very dark. Marlene grabbed the candle and could see a little and I stood there with my Blackberry trying and then the waiter came over with a small flashlight! Are you kidding me?? Apparently this is a huge issue but ambiance is awesome. I kept the flashlight around to take pictures and yes see our food, that was beautiful.

(look for flashlight in my hand)

Pink In Paris


I have been back a week but trying to come down from my Paris High! Fabulous incredible a dream come true are just some of the words to explain how I feel. I promise to post soon just wanted to Post some Paris Pink!!!

We were at Printemps this beautiful department store and had to go to the toilet. We paid 1 Euro and I saw this wall of toilet paper (will post that later) and of course the "pink" toilet paper....no I did not buy any...yet...lol Also in this amazing department store we ate a bite it their cafe with this amazing stained glass dome which a pink ball hang down from... Of Course macaroons were eaten and Laduree has the best, the pink one was my favorite! As we were walking around we walked in a shop that had this light box in pink with a lamp etched in...the French think of everything. They are elegant and cute with even the ever simple displays.

Macy's Flower Show

Spring is in full "boom" at Macy's in NYC! I ran in to get a over the chest Le SportSac bag for Paris touring and was delighted to see all these beautiful displays although outside was very cold. They had gorgeous flamingos and vases filled with fennel oranges lemons and flower displays coming out. The whole first floor is enchanting. Hopefully the weather gets it's act together so the flowers outside can bloom just as beautiful. Happy Spring!
