We’re Home!: Part 6 Last one!

Hi all, this is the final installment of the series of personal work from our vacation. I hope you enjoyed them, thank you all for the comments here and the great ones I’ve received via email!

The last images are from our time in Paris:

Starting things off are two of my favorite things in the world combined into one image. A big bag of fresh Pierre Hermé, and one of the chairs in the Jardin du Luxembourg. I can’t fathom a better breakfast, or a better place to enjoy it.

Here is what is quite possbily the best Pain au Chocolat you’ll ever find:

Followed by an even better (c’est pas possible!) Croissant aux Amandes:

They also have the very best Macaron I’ve ever had, and we tried alot of them when we lived there. :-) Do yourself a favor and make a beeline for Pierre Hermé if you’re ever in Paris.

This image tells a story. I guess if you were going to have your bike stolen, this is the best place for it to happen. :-)

Cars just don’t get anymore French than this:

A little Italian too:

A little British for good measure:

This particular door has special significance. This is the door to the building we used to live in. They just don’t make ‘em like that in SF.

This is why I don’t have very many photos from Paris. We were just WAY too busy having picnics either in Luxembourg, or along the Seine. :)

OK, that’s all of the personal images you’ll have to endure for quite awhile. Wedding season is now upon us!

Thanks again for viewing!

This man was fishing for octopus off the dock with just a length of string and a lure. He actually caught one about 30 seconds later!

We’re Home!: Part 2

Here are the second set of images for this week!

This tiny church is nearly 1000 years old, and is next door to Malarie’s Dad’s place. This is actually taken from his yard. Amazing.

The pride of the former Yugoslavia:

These guys were sea snails. You can actually buy them by the bag at the market in town. We (when I say “we” I mean Malarie’s Dad) prepared them by chopping them up and cooking them in a sauce to eat with pasta. Suprisingly yummy. :)

This guy was the proverbial “early bird” and was on the hunt:

Thanks for looking, see you tomorrow!
