Back "Home" to Paris! - Friday, 31 March


As I drive through the city on the way to the apartment I'm renting, it seems as if I never left. Not that Minneapolis is an unpleasant place, but oh, the beauty and familiarity and riches of this place!

The apartment I'm renting is just steps from my favorite street, rue Montorgueil, on the beautiful rue Bachaumont.  Here's a link to the listing:  https://www.vrbo.com/1732100ha

Those of you who have traveled in Paris with me will recognize the "cheese greeter" above the red awning at the end of my block! (She used to be down on the sidewalk, but they moved her a couple years ago.  http://mariellen-musing.blogspot.fr/2010/11/cheese-greeter-friday-5-november.html?m=1 )

This little article from last November does a better job describing my 'hood than I could:  https://www.francetoday.com/travel/paris/parisian-walkways-rue-montorgueil/

It's a gorgeous day in paradise!  À bientôt!
