I love fruit picking, especially #Strawberries!
The bonding continues!
When @mezmira tells me to find my light, it’s automatic.
Laughter has always been part of our shenanigans since circa 2000.
Currently lost in Paris.
Opera Garnier in a minute. Walk with me.
By the time @mezmira and I were finished at Opera Garnier, we were famished. We quickly hoped on the metro and headed to our fave cafe in Paris called Cafe Flore en L’ile. I bumped into this cafe 14 years ago, long before Emily came to Paris. 🤣 You can actually see the back and the flying buttresses of Notre Dame from the left most portion of the cafe. But the cathedral is currently being repaired after catching fire - so it’s all scaffoldings at the moment. Mez and I had some Ravioli for starters and the Plat du Jour of grilled chicken and risotto. We paired it with some Rosé at na bange me. So good though. 😘
After breakfast, @mezmira and I headed for Opera Garnier. We spent a good amount of time here getting to know a bit of it’s history. No space in this builidng was left without a decoration. Such an over the top style that even I can’t place it. I eventually found out it was called “Napoleon III” style. Lots of Mythological elements here which I love! But mind you I was overwhelmed after a few minutes. Lol And since where in such a beautiful space, we might as well put our modeling hat on. 😉😘
Eme in Paris.
