Last year, I was lucky enough to visit Paris twice.
I am actually seriously considering going again next week to sort out a bank issue. (Don't bank with HSBC, they only bring headaches!!!) But I digress, here are the highlights of our family trip last Spring.
I insisted we stay in the Montmartre area as I am most at home in Line's neighborhood, unfortunately, we were such a big group, we didn't fit in her extra room. Her location is so much better that the apartment we got in Rue Lepic, as I didn't realize Rue Lepic was so long, we ended up quite a hike up the mountain, already across Moulin de la Galette!!!
 |
| Of course I had to bring the fambam to my favorite quiche place. I actually dream about this!!! |
 |
| My wanderlust ballerines in Emerald Snakeskin match the door. |
Every trip to Paris, I visit La Vallee Village. It's like my long lost friend. Hahaha. Take note, they are open on Sundays... and there is a Primark (which opened the day we were leaving) in the mall right beside it.
 |
| Amorino Gelato is love. |
 |
| Sofia rocking my new Julia clutch. |
Another Paris staple is a meal at Leon de Bruxelles.
 |
| L'Ardenaise is my abosolute favorite dish! |
On our last day, we actually had nothing on our agenda, so we asked Sof to choose, and we ended up at Musee D'Orsay. What can I say, my kid grew up doing Museum Trails (mostly on free museum days) but it sure made her cultured.
 |
| Tip: the best seats to rest are near the clock. |
 |
| This is where my dad napped and waited for us, 18 years ago, because he would rather nap then enter another bloody museum. Hahaha. |
Another Paris staple for me, is a visit to my Line, my French maman. She's so nice, she not only feeds me, she feeds my whole family too.
 |
| Line's homemade berry jam and pain perdu (forgotten bread or what we know as French Toast) is the bomb. |
 |
| Thank you so much for having us Line. |
Paris always feels like home, that's why there's another Paris Revisited Winter 2017 post coming. just saying.
