Springtime in Paris

Last weekend we made an impromptu visit to Paris.  It had been many years since we last visited and it reawakened our love affair with the city.  Unfortunately it seemed to reawaken the whole world’s love affair too by the look of the long meandering queues for all the main attractions.   Getting an ice cream was impossible!   After a quick visit to Montmartre – my favourite spot, we decided to avoid the honeypots and explore other parts of the city.  






Place des Vosges
We discovered the Place des Vosges, where the whole of the City seemed to be enjoying the sunshine.   We wandered the streets of the Marais quarter, soaking up the lively atmosphere and enjoying performances by street musicians.

We promised ourselves we wouldn’t leave it so long next time mind you, we said that ten years ago!
