Shopping in Paris part two

I know just where I would love to go again in Paris... 

where I want to dine...

with someone very special... 

how I would dine...

and what I would select...

always prepared for a day, at least, 

for casual shopping...

and what I would purchase.

More elegant shopping, 

wait, what in Paris is not elegant?

a splurge of a lifetime...

my retreat at the end of a Paris pink day, and coming back to the apartment with

more drawings to add to the wall that I sketched that day....

Ready to go?

my Paris apartment

she looks out her 5th story apartment window and wonders if it is a dream. The gorgeous stone building sits directly across from the
Louvre.( the low wall in bottom left corner is actually the outer perimeter of the museum)

Facing left on her outside balcony she notices the only thing that separates her from the SEINE is a single street, which also runs along the LOUVRE. However did she manage to be in such a prime location in the 1 st arrondissement !

For two weeks she would enter this spectacular door and ascend to her dream escape, her rented apartment. For this short moment in time, she was a Parisian. She would shop at the markets, dine at the cafes and have the time of her life.

yes, she's me!

Oh, to choose to climb this grand staircase or indulge in a ride in the glass elevator. It would all depend on how many croissants I consumed (or glasses of wine)...

Once inside, I would revel in the designer decorated apartment, not to mention the view
out the window of the

Eiffel Tower and more...

Awaiting me were stacks of art books with an antique photograph of the building!

One last nightly panoramic view from my balcony.

Sweet dreams Paris,

I miss you...
