Oh my goodness I forgot about this holiday almost! I just looked at the date and it is the 1st of April. Dear me! I must go and stick some fish on the backs of unsuspecting Parisians in the métro ;)

My goodness, Carol. Great photos as ever. Lovely to see you back. Hope you had a good "rest" in Venice - or rather, a ball! Take care and here's to a great springtime. Speak soon, Jill xo
Bonjour ! I’m Carol Gillott, a former NYer living on Île Saint-Louis in a 21 meter chambre de bonne. As a Paris blogger, travel writer, watercolorist, and photographer, I share my latest escapades so you can walk around the city vicariously in my shoes. To experience even more of the Parisian life, sign up to receive my beautifully Illustrated monthly letters where I paint the Paris your dreams and mail them
to you wherever you are. You can order these letters, along with my art prints, at my Etsy shop.
Describe what you love about France in 3 words. Can we make it 5 words? Eyes, ears, nose, tastebuds + brain. Paris stimulates all my senses constantly. I’m inspired all the time – endlessly surprised and amused. New York doesn’t do it for me anymore…
I had almost forgotten about Poisson d'avril. Thanks for reminding me. It's tme to think of some mischief now.
