As always happens when you do all your colour posts the colour blue (Paris Blue no less)caught my eye this morning... my cat's food bowl, my exercise ball and the lid of my daughter's formula tin. Hopefully when I leave the house I will see more interesting blue things. Looking forward to your blog when you return to Paris.
