Watercolor Painting, French, Bar, Brasserie, Cafe


My dream vacation is to Paris, France,
I want to explore the avenues and hidden streets; 
it is a beautiful city full of charm and history, 
and at an outdoor café I will have some wine.

(And people watch) 

I will gaze at famous monuments, 
go to the top of the Eiffel Tower for a great view; 
listen to street opera that breaks my heart, 
and at a museum I will admire famous art. 

(It could take days)

I want to drift down the Seine by boat, 
see mossy tombs in cemeteries overflowing; 
walk the cobbled boulevards in a raincoat,
go to Parc de Belleville to see the flowers.

(It will be magical)

So awesome, Constance. did you never get to go there. I am so thankful it was part of my experience in the 70's when I did Madrid program at my school. I can see you going to all those places, especially the Louvre. you would be in heaven. Congrats to you.
