a comeback Part II

Have returned from Paris, having been on a nice jaunt with Mr C. We visited the Notre Dame, Louvre, Pompidou Centre, Eiffel Tower and for the rest, I can lend you the Rough Guide. I unfortunately caught a cold, having complied with Mr C's wishes to walk to the Eiffel Tower in pouring rain in unsuitable shoes (mine were, not his). We saw the Mona Lisa, which was ok in its way, but didn't seem to be as extraordinary as all the hype. I prefered the portraits made of fruit and flowers personally, although I've forgotten who painted them. Napoleon III's apartments were very magnificent, one could imagine little Leonie visiting with her Seigneur. Versailles was out this time though, perhaps in the future.

I finally visited a Sephora, which was definitely a highlight :) In fact, I went into three of them, I think. As my long-suffering mec puts it, I was like a kid in a candy shop. In fact I wanted to buy a candy floss scented perfume, but he vetoed.
