Good heavens, no. Hop on a plane and I'll meet you there; I'm just a short train ride away. My husband is there today on business and, as I type this, is probably considering which little bistro he'll dine in for lunch. I saw on the news last night that Galeries Lafayette has just put up their beautiful holiday lights and I told my husband, "I have to go see that!" (I didn't mention the shopping I plan to do inside.)
Thank you for the beautiful photograph, the gracious heart-felt sentiment and expressions of pleasure you are having there in the City of Lights. Best wishes for continued joy and delight in all things French while you are there. Hopefully the Republicans will have prevailed and still control the House and Senate when you return. :)
