Sunday in Paris

Bright fall mums spill from a circular row of large urns at the Luxembourg Gardens, Paris.

These men are regulars for Sunday afternoon boule games at the Luxembourg Gardens. They told me I should take photos of the next team, as they were "better players" - but not nearly as photogenic.

I spent most of the day with Susan of Soozphotoz and her belle mere Kate. We started off at the Puces de Vanves, where we found several curiosities and bargains, naturallement (more about that in another post). Susan and I discovered we were great shopping companions, taking our time to comb through boxes and baskets looking for elusive treasure. Then on to lunch at a lovely bistro near Montparnesse, before our afternoon sojourn in the Luxembourg Gardens, including Susan's annual pilgrimage to the Medici Fountain. Sadly, she's in Paris only a little longer - but we've already made plans for her next visit!
