My life long love affair with Paris - come along for the trip! Friday, October 25, 2013. Tour 13 Paris: Cutting edge art - beautiful, raw, but fleeting. Paris is always a jumble of preservation, tearing down, and building up. It is my most favorite thing about the city. It's what makes every trip different and exciting. The "Paris Tour 13" is an example. Cutting edge art - beautiful, raw, but fleeting. For more information and pictures about this art "instillation" see:. Planning a trip to Paris?

My life long love affair with Paris - come along for the trip! Wednesday, December 4, 2013. Paris Nostalgia - Remembering the Minitel. When one is nostalgic about Paris, one thinks of Post WWII ballads like"La Vie en Rose, or the thriving cultural time between the Great Wars, or the boisterous and creative turn of the (last) century's Belle Epoque. A sleek, well designed Minitel terminal for French homes. Minitel. Need to check flight or train schedules? Ooh-la-la, La Vie en Rose indeed! I remember, when...

http://ohzutalors.blogspot.com/2013/03/celebrating-frances-national-holiday.html
My life long love affair with Paris - come along for the trip! Saturday, March 16, 2013. Celebrating France's National Holiday. Many people don't know that Bastille day, or "le quatorze Juillet" as it's more commonly called by the French, is their version of the American 4th of July. But what are they celebrating? There were lots of events that lead into the French Revolution. But it's generally recognized that the events on the 14th of July 1789 was the beginning - and the reason for the celebration.

My life long love affair with Paris - come along for the trip! Monday, August 18, 2014. OK, I'm Guilty! During my trip to Paris this Spring, I did a bad thing. I didn't realize I was, but I did. What was this awful "faux pas? I am guilty of taking pictures of my food and sharing them with friends and, now, YOU! I had some really nice meals in some fun restaurants - the kind that are off the tourist track. Restaurateurs aren't running a circus and don't appreciate this behavior (nor does anyone else.)...

My life long love affair with Paris - come along for the trip! Wednesday, November 27, 2013. Visit The "Little Taj Mahal of France". I learn something new about Paris nearly every day.

This "Pavilion of India" was originally housed in a huge exhibition hall as an attraction during the Universal Exhibition of Paris in 1878. It stood where the Eiffel Tower is now. Now, this historical property has been ren...

My life long love affair with Paris - come along for the trip! Sunday, June 24, 2012. Cell Phones for France. I've had Call In Europe on my page for two years as a good source for getting cell phone service in France. Two years ago, I had an excellent experience with them, so easy to to deal with. I actually bought two little cell phones which came with chargers for American current and an adapter French electrical outlets, and SIM cards. So - disappointingly, off they go from my list. So what will I do?
