I arrived in Paris safely after a long, uncomfortable flight (luckily no back pain, just the usual cramped legs from sitting in a confined space for so long).
I found a nice Taxi driver who quoted me a fair price (50 Euros!) to take me to Michelle's apartment and got here without incident. I am so grateful!
Taken from my taxi window. I can hardly believe I'm here again. It was a strange thing to be in the taxi recognizing places and directing the driver...what the?! (I'm so global. Hee.)
We have already bought pastries and lunch and went to a park near the Eiffel Tower (which is walking distance from here).
This pastry (courtesy of Elizabeth's Euros) was a little bit of heaven on Earth.
It is cold today, but comfortably brisk for Michelle and I.
The pigeons in Paris are incredibly well fed. I ask you, how is it possible for this bird to lift off in flight?
I'm giddy about being here in the fall.
This is an Eiffel Tower leaf.

P.S. Did you know that when you use the spell check feature while in France pretty much every word in my post is misspelled?
Comment Window Tidbit: I can't believe I'm here! It's really quite something. It sounds different, smells different and definitely looks different than any place I've ever been before.
