Do you understand what the two girls above are trying to do?

montmartre by night

paris

started here with this view! our friends picked us up from the train station and took us up to the sacré coeurs footsteps to enjoy the sunset. they had brought some fresh beer and we stood there in amazement. the 30000 other tourists, the guy singing U2 and the insisting beer sellers couldn't do anything to spoil this magic moment. we were in paris.

robert doisneau

happy birthday mr. doisneau!

we endured a one hour waiting line to see doisneau's exhibition about "les halles" (see a bit more about le halles here). it was so crowded it was hard to truly appreciate his pictures but i loved it anyway.

Some flowers for you monsieur doisneau!

and totally by chance i was able to catch a kiss while waiting for our turn to enter! a very (let's say VERY) humble hommage to doisneau's world famous image.
