The national past time in France. The gathering of the motorcycles was massive, cordial even festive. Terrible for traffic but quite the show for sitting at a sidewalk cafe on a Sunday afternoon.
Paris aujourd’hui
To be young, to be in love, and to be in Paris.
He once asked me, “When you were a little girl, did you ever think that you would be strolling down the Champs-Elysees?”

It is a beautiful day and I am happy to be here.
