Well, I've been here before. A slow month. I could write about a lot of health things or political topics but I don't want to and you probably don't want to read them. So, it's back to revisiting the travel photo archive!
As I mentioned HERE, one of my favorite Christmas presents was from Kevin and Molly -- and Aura frame. I think there are different brands but similar -- you upload photos onto a screen in a frame about the size of a tablet and it randomly circuits through them -- as many as you put up there. (So far, I'm at about 1,100).
It has been fun going through photo folders of family and friends, and of course, travel, as I choose photos to include. So, today we continue the "Finding Old Photos" series, French edition. All pics, with very little text apart from captions.

I love seeing your travel photos! (And love to travel myself).
...and thanks Jeanie for taking me along. You didn't overlook any of the details.
So beautiful thanks for the arm chair travel.

That looks like so much fun! A great idea for a post. Paris was amazing when we visited way back when.
