Hello Boomer Girlfriends!

We are back at home in our beautiful new condo with wonderful memories of Paris.

Such a beautiful city. A perfect city to spend time with the one you love. We laughed, we cuddled, we did our version of the bosa nova each morning (I bought a card for Dennis' birthday and it played the bosa nova) we met warm and helpful people from all corners of the world, we fell in love again, we saw the sites and museums and we ate and ate and ate, and then we ate some more.

I will post a few pictures later and tell you some stories. For now, it's simply good to be home again and back with my girlfriends at BWS.

Welcome back and I can't wait to see the pics, Anno. Your posts were missed around here. What was one of the nicest highlights of your trip? Tell Dennis we missed him too.

Hey thanks for the welcome home!

I have spent most of the day downloading photos while poor old Dennis rests. I expect he will be down for a couple of days, at least.

First picture and a story:



We arrived in Paris at 8am. After an hours (Dennis says two hours)cab ride into Paris we arrived at our hotel and they let us go directly to the room. (A few days later one of the managers told me the rumor was Dennis looked like he was on his death bed the day we arrived ) After unpacking, I put Dennis to bed and I went for a walk. I knew we were somewhere near the Arc de Triomphe, but I wasn't sure where it was. I walked along this street and all of a sudden it was there, right in front of me. I cannot describe how breath-taking seeing this in person for the first time was for me. It's huge and detailed and over-whelming.

As most of you know, I have traveled a bit in my time, but I have never seen a city as beautiful as Paris. This was just an inkling of what we were in for during our two week stay.

Hi Anno! Waving madly at you!
You are so beautiful girl! What a figure! That impresses me more than the Arc de Triomphe. Are you going to write a series here! Oh goody!

Thanks, Edelweiss, although I felt HUGE in Paris. My gosh, don't those girls eat anything? The average waist size must be about 21 inches!

When we got further away from the center of Paris, people began to look like they ate a meal or two a day. One day, in Montmartre, I almost felt I was of average size. I am so glad that I don't live somewhere where I feel I have to starve to look good.
