Haiku – springtime in Paris

~

Springtime in Paris.

Blossom filled walks on the Seine

Keep spring in our steps

~

As we end our jaunt in Paris, I am grateful for sunshine and comfortable shoes! Such a beautiful city to explore and nourish the artistic soul 💛

p.s. “Legs up the wall” pose was also appreciated every night.

    Lovely Paris shot! I hear you about the legs up – Paris requires a lot of walking.

    Springtime in Paris! Ohh la la. I just returned from a morning walk in the Boston springtime of blossoms and boats and busy-ness. I think I’ll put my legs up now, thank you very much for the reminder. xo

    There is a tiny bit of envy going on here. 🙂 I don’t walk as far or long as I used to so no envy there. Scotland sounds more up my ally. 😉 Enjoy, enjoy.
