Another fête du Cidre 🍎

BEAR'S Last Day in Paris

BEAR is safely home in New York YAY!

Our last day in Paris was drizzly, overcast. Sunday, so no one was out which is always nice :) BEAR decided we must do a last quick run to Champs-Elysees. L'Arc de Triomphe. Crazy Parisian runners in the rain.
Last Parisien dog and a big one!

 Easter bears in a window.

Inside a not so dreamy 30-minute wait

For gooey pastries.

We waited 30 min only so BEAR could take a last Metro ride in a pastry bag.

BEAR suggested we take AirFrance Bus to Charles de Gaulle Airport since it's faster then the RoisseyBus especially if you go on Sunday morning.

We got there in 20 minutes with loads of time to browse duty-free.

BEAR badly wants a 'I was in Moulin Rouge' T-shirt.

I wanted a 'I was in Hermes' something or other.

We both wanted Hediards macarons.

In red boxes.

And Dalloyau's macarons.

Oh well you can't always get what you want  

BONJOUR HOME!

Parisien Silhouettes

I see silhouettes everywhere I look in Paris Pierre Herme reminded me again how graphic a city Paris is... Les chats on bathroom glasses at BHV...BHV has silhouettes on every floor... Like this chandelier wrapping paper... A candelabra homage on a lamp shade - witty no? Parisien vitrines/windows are full of them...

illustrator Rene Gruau, loved the silhouette. His classic cancan dancer's leg = Moulin Rouge

Isn't the classic Paris waiter is a walking silhouette?

I've been saving this cerise/cherry silhouette for ages...

Man walking mini poodle in Paris - both in black.

You see this silhouette again and again.

Man in BHV buying a skyline wall decoration.
Paris has the best skyline - Eiffel Tower, Sacre Coeur, L'Arc de Triomphe, bla bla bla

From French Kusmi Tea...

Tiny walking green man silhouette, across from BHV...Place de la Concorde at l'heure bleu/dusk - the best Paris silhouette

BON WEEKEND A TOUS!
