Christmas in Paris

After a bit if a hiatus with the blog - we are now in Paris, enjoying Christmas and New year with our good friends Penny & Bob

This at Place de la Madeleine





Christmas Day just before late lunch, in our apartment in the Rue Jacob on the left bank

Hellebores , the traditional Christmas flower

Lots of kissing under the mistletoe

Can you see him?

 Here he is...


The Burberry Christmas tree

...and in the window at Galleries Lafayette


Wishing you all a wonderful year ahead
Keep healthy and happy

    G'day,
    Nice snaps. My favourites are the Christmas Tree mit thr red shades,left frame & the Corinthian Columns in the background & the tight version of Richard in the Conifer.
    We are about to get a heat wave descend upon us over here. Saturday if forecasted to be in the 40's. Still no rain. Was speaking to Bullecourt the other day & they are in dire straits. Lost over 200 cattle & are feeding 125 poddy calves. Christian goes out there on Saturday, I think. Will be an eye opener for him. I well remember, vividly would be a better word, helping Dad pull eyeless sheep out of the Ballards tank on a daily basis in the late 40's. At that time we were down to a mere puddle of water at the hole that the red windmill pumped out of. No water at all in the big windmill hole, our, Mum/Dad's water. In reality I suspect we were 1-3 days from disaster & then; rain, rain, rain followed by flooding with the river coming up to the 3rd step of the big house. Orstralia, not a country for the shirker.
