I ask her to get the stamps that I need, or, if she refuses, when I get to the window, I repeat what she has just said, but change the numbers.<br />She speaks the language quite well, having taken several French courses in the last few years.<br />The last few times that we were in Paris, she bought several children’s books, that came with<br />a CD. When she got home, she spent hours, translating the French into English. It works for her.<br />When we attended the Biennale des Antiquaires at the Grand Palais, we actually memorized the<br />French phrases for: “Is that your best price”?, “Will you take_______Euros?” etc…. When we got there,<br />most of the items had no prices listed, and a lot of it was Jewelry by Chanel, Bulgary, Tiffany’s, Harry Winston……<br />Needless to say, we didn’t need to use those phrases!<br />Have a great weekend.Wendynoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26546687.post-63359635944663377282014-03-21T10:37:22.374-04:002014-03-21T10:37:22.374-04:00Great post as always.I am BU to my lists of must v...Great post as always.I am BU to my lists of must visits.<br />I also just ordered Janice's book on my Kindle.I can immerse myself in it on the plane.<br />,Merci<br />Cyndi<br />cyndi from SDnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26546687.post-77363479713683392212014-03-21T10:29:54.902-04:002014-03-21T10:29:54.902-04:00;))

When there in 2012, I used the postal office located in the Hotel de Ville, which was across from the apt where I was staying. My friends and I mailed lots of cards and shipped our French finds back home with no problem except for: I wanted to have my own souvenir proof that I had been in Paris, so I mailed a postcard to myself, the front of which was the beautiful Olympia by Edouard Manet in all her bare glory. Do you think I received the card back home? Not a chance. After discussing it with my postman, we decided that either the US Post Office was much too prudish to let it go through or someone along the line coveted the card for themselves. We had a good laugh.<br /> JudyMnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26546687.post-28286700913344619602014-03-21T10:12:32.017-04:002014-03-21T10:12:32.017-04:00Carol, this particular post was so full of so many...Carol, this particular post was so full of so many things...very lively.

There are 3 postes in 75004. Each denied having the package. The number on my notification slip was indecipherable, even by the French! On my second try to get the package the poste on Île St Louis told me it had been picked up and signed for! I demanded that they actually look in the back for the package. This idea met with great reluctance. Finally a woman at the Hôtel de Ville poste actually took a minute to decode the tracking number and told me the package was at the poste on Cité. The guy there reluctantly went into the back and came out with my package. c'est Jeff icihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10756888309730392872noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26546687.post-91115132062112157662014-03-21T08:49:39.150-04:002014-03-21T08:49:39.150-04:0010 - 8 I think...10 - 8 I think...Parisbreakfastshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03558314043814894010noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26546687.post-79460661098070526042014-03-21T08:39:21.797-04:002014-03-21T08:39:21.797-04:00Several times we've tried to get into the BU s...Several times we've tried to get into the BU store.
