That is so scary Hops.  When you go to Paris get some Cassis Sorbet if you see it. And if you can only drink one glass of wine then  it's encouragement not to waste time on mediocre wine. Be adamant that nobody gives you table wine. We have good wine in the US too but we don't have all that Architecture and art. 

I always wanted to go to Musée de l’Orangerie with those big long Monet paintings that take up the whole room.

Hopalong:
Good advice, Boat!
M is all over wine and every glass is amazing. I will keep my eye for cassis sorbet today! We're going to do a mellow boat down the Seine. Day before yesterday we spent in Giverny so I wish I could have brought you!
We had dinner by the Sorbonne yesterday where he's lectured, and spent a good deal of time at Notre Dame, just trying to absorb the sight.
We arrived in Paris just after the heat wave broke and it's been beyond gorgeous since.

Lemme say though that the jet lag!s been Brutal, took both of us until today to feel fairly normal and tomorrow we leave! But it's also been wonderful and brought us closer (not counting day one, when I was so exhausted I was Not Pleasant). Since then though we've done really well. He feels like a boy again and I'm enjoying his company. Finding my rusty French again is fun. Most meaningful was having dinner with my friend!s daughters and their families in Montmartre. I didn't get to say goodbye to their mother, my close friend from age 17, and reconnecting with these girls almost felt like being a mother again. They were jut wonderful. The husband is a historian so he and M had a wonderful time.

hugs

Meh:
That's great Hops. Glad you are having fun.

I'm so happy to read about your trip, HOPS!  Keep sharing, and consider eating at Le Souffle IF you can't think of somewhere else to eat.  I always enjoy that place when in Paris.  https://www.tripadvisor.com/Restaurant_Review-g187147-d719430-Reviews-Le_Souffle-Paris_Ile_de_France.html

There's fancier eating establishments, but I always make sure to visit this not too fancy place at least once.  The blue facade breaths happiness into my heart when I see it.  The food is comforting, and yummy!  I always feel the wait staff cares, and wants to make me happy: )

YAY! YAY! to having a nice time, not too hot, in Paris, HOPS!

I'm so glad: )

E Gads... I think maybe we're all about a 1000 miles OT from the purpose of the board, these days. Everyone is doing so much better than years ago. The contrast is positively heartening.

When do you take off for the 2nd leg of your trip Hops? Still feeling fine I hope?
