The Paris Party!


Bienvenue, mes amies!
If you've been to this blog before, you've see my little thumbnail over to the right that says "in my head, I'm in Paris"
Well, tonight, I'm linking up with the fabulous 
and her 
Paris Party




and I really am in [a virtual] Paris with many other Francophiles!
This is a bon fête!!


This is one of my favorite parts of Paris...
le Marais

I also love 

Les Invalides...


...and the Latin Quarter...and

The staircase at the Gustave Moreau Museum


or the feminine feeling of the Musée Carnavalet






Once the private home of
 Madame de Sevigné.













I love the "pain, vin, and frommage" of Paris





and the lure of the shop windows
















the galleries




and the graffiti...





and the guys.




And, yes, the girls





the lovers...




and the lonely.



The cars


and the carousels












the Metro




and Montmartre


at night...




or day...






and of course, La Tour


at sunset.


These are just a few of the reasons why I love Paris. 




And I'm not the only one...  
Of course He does!!


 If you want to see more of my photos of Paris you can join me at my photo blog 
French at Heart


THANK YOU, ANITA
for throwing this party again!!  I met you just one year ago HERE!!!


Au revoir, mes amies,
dawne

  1. Dawne,
    I love your Paris! What a great trip. I did get there early yes. I was at the airport waiting for my flight at 4 minutes past midnight GMT :-). I was keen to get there and see the wonders. Meet you for coffee in the Latin Quarter!

  11. If not in person, seeing Paris through your eyes {and camera lens} has got to be the BEST!!!

    Isn't this how we met last year through Anita?!?

    I am sitting here eating an omelette and drinking orange juice out of my "Paris" mug and pretending I'm at a sidewalk cafe as I watch the Parisians walk by...

    Hugs to you, and prayers and blessings!
    Yes, Jesus Loves Paris ~ and all who live and travel there, even through these blogs this week....

Oh Dawne,thank you so much for coming again to participate in what I feel is a real connection.

  30. Dawne, your photos are not different than paintings, telling stories of romance with a little nostalgia ...Your reasons to love Paris are somehow my reasons, too; for that I am happy to meet you through Anita's wonderful celebration.

  41. Hello Dawne

    I have had a beautiful few minutes travelling along with you through Paris. You have captured the heart of the city and through the sepia colour it brings back memories of my honeymoon in Paris more than 30 years ago. Very special and incredible photography
