  50. Paris, I went for the first time last year for three days with my daughter who did her junior year in college abroad in England. I had just had surgery and was a little limited, but a pushed through and saw so many things in those three days. But alas, my computer crashed and I lost some of my paris pics. Luckily I have one of the eiffel tower and all of Versailles. I planned on going to a french ribbon shop while I was there and planned to do so on the day we were to leave. I was so saddend to see the store closed on Sunday,(i was not aware all the stores close on sunday :( ) I stood looking in the window, with my hands itching for some of the pretty ribbon for my scrappin. Oh well another time.!! Enjoy

    ReplyDelete

  61. I hope you have a great trip to Paris!

    Also, an (unrelated) question): How to you add your blog background to the html code? When I add the background to my blog, and shrink the window size in the x-direction, my background overlaps the text/postings. Your background just disappears off the screen...Did that make any sense???

    ReplyDelete
  62. Oooh la la! Paris! Can't imagine the crazy goodness you will find there...hope to win.

  65. I'm soooo jealous! I made my first trip ever to Paris last April! We were there for 7 days and it was not long enough; there's so much to see & do. I did get a pair of Christian Louboutin shoes from the original store which was the only thing I HAD to do. I have pics of the outside of the store, me inside trying on EVERY pair in the store and walking out of the store with my beloved shoes! Even a year later, I am still a very happy camper! Have a wonderful time.

    I'm syure you'll find plenty of inspiration in paris - Paris in spring is BEAUTIFUL!
