It was the perfect morning to see Paris again - early Saturday, sunny,
blue sky, fewer people, more cute dogs, less honking traffic, more fragrant
croissants baking, people sauntering, no rushing or pushing - until we reached
Avenue des Champs Élysées!
Met our friends this afternoon - all boarded the ship and we are now cruising north
toward Normandy.
So far all is lovely and tomorrow I will be visiting Claude Monet's beautiful house
and gardens at Giverny. The water lilies will no longer be in bloom but I think
it will still be a colorful place to see.
