Helloooooooo from Paris! There hasn’t been much time for blogging recently, because of travel-travel-travel. Anniversary #11 for the Grill-Meister and me brought us to Paris late last week to have some personal celebration time ahead of work here for each of us. I had my fancy camera with me, but never got it out over the weekend, deciding instead to be in the moment and see Paris through his eyes. He had never been here before, and there’s just sooooo much to take in.
I have many things to tell you about this remarkable time we had together – the food! the tango dancers! the positive feedback about the blog! the way we coped with our luggage not arriving ALL WEEKEND! – but alas, not tonight. It’s late. Tiredness is with us. The Grill-Meister has gone on to London for his work, and I will follow on Friday. Big and important workshops for my job this week are dominating my thought-capacity, so I will just share this imperfect and yet wonderful photo. It was glorious to experience the Eiffel Tower through the lens of a first-timer as we glided along the Seine on a river cruise last Friday night. Happy sigh: Life is Good.

I’m glad you just enjoyed it in the moment and enjoyed seeing it through new eyes for a first time. Me and my girlfriend are heading there in a couple of weeks and she’s never been before either so hopefully I’ll have a similar experience 🙂
I can’t wait to hear about it! Where will you take her to eat? It was such fun to take the Grill-Meister to my favorite places, and a couple of them were recognized me from the blog (be still my heart!).
Ah, I’m not too sure to be honest. I’ve only been once so don’t know Paris’ restaurants all that well. Any recommendations are welcome 🙂
It’s cool you’re getting recognised internationally too haha.
Oh, cool! I think you should try Bistro des Augustins. It rocks!! Inexpensive and excellent, please tell them that Glover Gardens sent you if you go. https://glovergardens.com/2017/08/10/comfort-food-alert-the-best-gratin-in-paris-or-maybe-anywhere/ and I have other Paris tips here, including the amazing Vietnamese place I learned about from Ray at the Storyteller blog. https://glovergardens.com/2018/09/16/aunt-kim-do-you-have-any-paris-suggestions-indeed-i-do/ have fun, and I can’t wait to hear about your good times.
