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…

Viva America !
ReplyDeleteHow wonderful it must be to be an American in Paris on this day. It makes me wish, even more than usual, that I could be there too.
ReplyDeleteOhhhh Congratulations to us
ReplyDeleteI know you're in Paris during the election but I figure that we are of like mind. It's strange to be out of our country for something
so enormous. I was in Paris when our whole financial system tanked. It was bizarre to read about that with such detachment... so I was thinking about you tonight as I was
curled up on my sofa in Los Angeles watching the results.
When it was 8:02 LA time and MSNBC declared Obama the winner, I sobbed for at leat 5 minutes then called every person I know. I don't remember a time in my lifetime when I've been so proud to be an American and I wanted to share that with you so many miles away. OMG........omg, it
happened. Congratulations to us........and to the world.
I've never before gotten such a sense of pride in what our
country represents.
Big hugs from LA.
Terrie
OUI!
ReplyDeleteBIEN SUR!
I can not recall, although i am sure there were such times, where i have been moved to shed tears of shear joy.
ReplyDeleteIt's a whole new world. Let's all rejoice in it.
Joe
Us too!!
ReplyDeleteSidiq's mum was so happy, she never thought this would happen in her lifetime, well neither did Sidiq lol!..Its wonderful, and it makes me think America is wonderful all over again like when I was little!!
Strengthened my faith in the democratic process.
And whether it was an election night, Gay Pride, or New Year's Eve 1999, I've never witnessed so much unbridled joy in the streets.
Oh, Yes We Can Can...and did! Merci you dear soul! Love you!!! As soon as this economy picks up I will be purchasing one of your long admired prints. C'est magnifique!!!
ReplyDeleteBest to you, have fun, come back to us(your blog-fans)

Thank you for supporting our president. I love your website and find it most informative concerning the wonderful world in which my family has lived for several generations on George X and Avenue Montaigne.
ReplyDeleteLike Barrack Obama, I am the mother of a bi-racial child whom I try to raise in a Culturally sensitve & healthy way.
Respectfully Yours,
Lady Gwen
Keep in mind that not all your readers are BHO supporters. It's a sad night for the U.S. :<...

Cheers.

I had to get some sleep at 3pm,
ReplyDeleteI was completely exhausted. My kids pulled an all-nighter. Made them all-American pancakes (blueberry and raspberry, for blue and red) for breakfast. I had to cry when I listened to Obama's speech.
Bonne Journeee a vous aussi! Quelle belle journee!
ReplyDeleteGod bless us all.
Irene
Thank you all, Americans, for your courage! As Italian I thank you very much for giving us hope for the future!
ReplyDeleteFinally! A positive change; I am beyond thrilled!
ReplyDeleteYES, YES, YES WE CAN :)
ReplyDeleteSOOOOOO ESTATIC!!!!! It's a great feeling right now for me to know that we will now have a competent leader in the Whitehouse, a man who is FOR the people and who will make good/wise decisions for the common good. I feel now that America's very strained reputation will also now begin to improve, as well. After 8 long years, I finally feel proud to be an AMERICAN!!!! It's been a LONG time. God bless all those Americans who went out to the polls and voted for CHANGE!!! Yes, WE can!!!!! AMEN!!!!
ReplyDeleteAfter 4 decades as a resident alien I became a citizen so I could vote for Obama and I have been richly rewarded!
ReplyDeleteTo I.said: I know you feel disheartened because I felt it too after so many election nights of the past. I hope the months ahead will give you some reason to appreciate our new president: we want ALL Americans to share in a better future.
MS Breakfast, I love your site!
Yes you can "dream in every colour"
ReplyDeleteA new beginning awaits while the rest of the world watches...
Stand united and be proud - YES YOU CAN...
lat night I had lovely celebratory cocktails of salty tears of joy mixed with champagne. It was delightful. I highly recommend. He did it. We did it. Yes!!
ReplyDeleteI am over the top with excitement and joy! I hear that is the way the entire world is feeling right now!
ReplyDeleteMerci, Carol!
Hi! I agree with I.said, I did not watch Obama's speech last night nor do I care to follow politics anymore. I think the Carter years are back. Passionate I am! One good thing I.said the Senate didn't take the 60 seats it needs. yeah!
ReplyDeleteGod bless America~we need it!
A great day of joyce and hope!!
ReplyDeleteA beautiful post to start the morning! I'm feeling very hopeful about the future of our country now.
ReplyDeleteYES!! YES WE CAN!!
ReplyDeleteAnd He did it and we did it!
Thank God. Now we have hope again after
so long.
Pamela
Thank you thank you for posting this fanatastic phenomenon!
ReplyDeleteWe had a great time celebrating in Chicago.
ReplyDeleteWe can and we DID.......
Wooo...hooo...!
Obama did it!!
ReplyDeleteWe are thrilled.
What great news to wake up to......yeeeehaaaaaa!!!
Congratulations,dear Carol.
ReplyDeleteYou must be happy today.Anyway,you,as the America people,prove again to the whole world why you´re the oldest democracy in the world ;D
Even you know my opinion about Obama(following my admired Giuseppe T.di Lampedusa thoughts)I´m happy for you and I hope he will be the inspired man everyone expects : )
XOXO
We still have tears of joy.
ReplyDeleteMy friend in Brittany has already written with a congratulatory note.
Any more "election coverage" from France is appreciated :-)
Thank you. I wanted "Sarah Palin" to be the winner ... first woman VP and all ..... but I'm smiling today for Barack, and will support him.
ReplyDeleteI love anything Paris, it makes me smile. :)
I am always delighted to start my day with your post. I am a Canadian, married to a man with Acadian heritage and I honeymooned in Paris nearly thirty years ago. Your sense of humour and your art work never fail to delight me.
ReplyDeleteThis morning I am a little groggy having stayed up too late to watch with great interest to see what our wonderful neighbours to the south would do. Would they seize the opportunity of a lifetime and elect this magnificent leader who has offered his skills to them? Oh what a night! History …
Imagine my delight to see this wonderful poster on your website this morning. No further delay. Can you tell me where I can if possible purchase a copy of this which encompasses an exposition featuring a man I admire in a city I’d like to call home? It’s calling out to me.
Carol, I am so happy and so relieved, and it just feels like our country got it so right. I was afraid we might not do it, but now I am just so elated...I feel such optimism...
ReplyDeleteYes you could, congratulation
ReplyDeleteI cannot think of anyone in Politics (in my lifetime) that ever made me feel the optimism of positive change, or that their intentions were "real” until Obama. I could not be more THRILLED or hopeful about future possibilities now. I am so proud of each and every American who made the effort to vote for this exceptional man. This demonstrates faith and restored hope. When is the last time such massive numbers of people were genuinely on the same page?
ReplyDeleteThis vast world of ours that encompasses so much difference is really so much the same because at the end of the day, our values aren’t all that different. Apparently more and more people have awoken to this truth, so things can only get better :) The people have spoken and I just want to say “GOD BLESS AMERICA”!!!!
One favor please…clone him and send him over to Canada….pleeeeeeease! Maybe with exception of our “so-called politicians” (hah), our entire country has been backing Obama!!! Thank you Carol Have a blast :D
Ahhhhh.....I am heaving a HUGE sigh of relief! And now to work!
ReplyDeleteTHANK YOU Carol.. I am still crying!!!!!!!!!
ReplyDeleteI campaigned in PA every weekend, for him.. I was in tears when he WON PA.. And then the election!!!..OMG!!
Thanks for the images!!
Pat
Obama Win!American Win!The world is changing!
ReplyDeleteYesterday was a great day for the USA. Now, I can believe in the American Dream, again. I'm just sad I was not in NYC to live this special and historic moment. Enfin, merci!
ReplyDeleteWoo hoo! We did it! What an amazing time to be an American!!
