Can't sleep........

Wondering what to do in the wee small hours of the morning so I thought i would share some more pics from our gorgeous little trip to Paris. I have been very selective not to include any of myself in my thick layers of black clothing or the other 2 girls as they made me vow not to do so. I can only say that 3 woman together in Paris, What a ball!!
Our lovely little apartment was right across the road from the Eiffel Tour
Flowers everywhere, add colour to the grey skies above. This was a sweet little flower shop in St Gemain
Had to take a photo of the metro sign outside of Invalides
We stopped off at cafe Marley for a warm cup of ceylon tea at the Louve
Looking out from our apartment
Laduree treats at Chateau Versaille
Walking across the bridge on our way back home from dinner at Ladureee on the Champs Elysee. Love watching the Eiffel Tower sparkle on the hour for 5 minutes
Inside our 2 bedroom apartment. Not too messy!

i'd like to see Italy too CJ it's high on my list of places to stay for months on end. I would like to go there in the Spring/ Summer months.
We found this little Apartment one night as we were googling accomodation near the Eiffel Tower. It's called the Merlot apartment and is in the 7th district.

Absolutely gorgeous apartment. Don't you just love going to get flowers, saucission, etc. and just take home what you see in the food shops!!!! Your trip away from home was so long, this is a great place to relax in. Wonderful to meet all of you!!!! Robespierre asked me to tell you, Tracey and Haley he hopes you had one fabulous "walkabout"!!! Maryanne & Peter XO
