I liked Paris more than I thought I would. I liked the atmosphere in Paris - there is no day or night there, the streets and cafes are always full of people, and not only because of the tourists. It is very beautiful along the Seine. And most of French people speak English and are quite polite contrary to the rumours about them. I visited many places of interest in Paris but the museums which impressed me most are the Louvre, an old dream of mine, and Musee d'Orsey. I posted five pics from Paris for you: two pics of Seine with its bridges, the beautiful white Sacre Coeur Basilica, Notre Dame Cathedral with me in front  , and the inside court of the Louvre with its magnificent buildings.And that's the end of my travel story 'Three Countries in a Week'  ...My eyes are directed to another land now, I may tell you about it later  I'm wishing you an exciting summer and welcoming you to sunny Bulgaria    Yours SL,  All I need is sun...

Ouuu great picture  like how you did the menagerie I would luv to go there to see the museums and castles in France  But they don't care much for Americans anymore .. even though we freed their country from Hitler  I am thinking of saving my pennies for a trip to Madrid Spain .. sleeping late .. then a noon siesta .. and party all night sure sounds like fun to me and they had a great write up about it in the travel section of the newspaper today  they often give you free food with a glass of wine .. now how cool is that

Marvelous pictures! The overcast weather endowed the River Seine with an air of solemnity and calmness. Um, did you meet the Hunchback of Notre Dame, SL?

I was thinking about going with rachie in August, as you said, but she won't go anymore. What is the best beach in your oppinion, if I look for a hotel on the beach? Misty and Riny stayed at Selena hotel in Sozopol last summer and I think they liked it. The hotel's stairs go down right on the beach. You can also look for hotels in Nessebar, its beaches are lovely, too, and the town has an old part, the same as Sozopol. But you would do the best if you make an 'enlightenment' contact with Misty . If she and Riny decide to come to Bulgaria again, and you, they and I can meet, it would be just GREAT !!!! SL All I need is sun...

Riny and I adored Musee d'Orsay....the Louvre not so much... Pompideu (spelling!) Centre was terrific as well.. Picasso museum...not so much... Paris is fantastic....I just love it.....so glad you went and enjoyed it... I'm glad I managed to see the places of interest planned on my list. The Louvre was a dream of mine from my childhood and I'm happy I finally saw it. It was worth every minute of my three hours in there. I also loved the sculptures and impressionistic paintings in Musee d'Orsay. After visiting Picasso museum in Barcelona, I decided I could skip him this time ...Thanks for your e-mail. Will share impressions in a week SL All I need is sun...

Beta...not 'i won't go anymore'...i said i 'can't' go at the moment, as i am out of work and cannot afford to, especially august time as much more expensive..sept, oct would be more affordable, but then again, i said, if my circumstances changed then i would go... Paris i went there once...it is a city for lovers...i would love to go back... You still can sunbathe and swim in September in Bulgaria...My last swim last year was on Sept 15. And October is lovely for walks I'd go back to Spain, there are more places I'd love to visit in this vast country SL All I need is sun...

I haven't reached Paris yet. I do hope one day I will. How did you enjoyed the Napoleon collection of art?

But I enjoyed king Louis XIV collections in the Louvre...SL All I need is sun...

 Ahh Paris,I have so many fond memories of it..The Tower was so busy that day it would have taken 4 hours wait for the next boarding.. The old streets with it's painters..I had a cuttings done,a photo picture that looks exactly like me.. The cathedral,huge..The many monuments,the languages that flowed around as you walked about..I was left in amazement's,my eyes wide open to what comes next..All beautiful. The only thing I had to be aware of was not walking in the Dogs poo..There was many dogs poo on the streets..  Maybe it is differ today as it was ten years ago..I hope to one day,visit Paris again...The city of love.. Glad to read that you had such a lovely time.. PS: Thanks for sharing these wonderful pictures with us.. It is the truth in man that sets him free..

Hi Rose, welcome to my blog. Sights by the Seine and the museums are really worth seeing, yes. But temperatures in Paris are not high so be sure that you go there in summer. Hope your wish soon come true. SL All I need is sun...
