Visitors!

After an aborted first attempt, Russ and Nettie finally made it to Paris for a weekend.
We started off at Madame de Sévigné's house, now a museum, in the Marais and then had a lovely lunch in the dappled shade of the plane trees.





I feel this photo should have a jagged rip down the centre, separating our two friends, with the caption: "Frosty relations in the City of Romance. Is divorce on the menu?".
Nettie was studying the carte and Russ was in touch with a Cabinet Minister.





Then off for a walk around the islands, a boat trip on the Seine and a stroll along the Champs Elysées.
Some people had a snooze before the evening outing .


Next day Russ took us on a walk in the Bois. No, I still don't like it. Roads and paths, traffic islands and a lake that everyone walks around in single file.
But we had mates with us and it was great!
