T Stands for the Last Day in Paris

The days really are whizzing by - it must be the sunshine that makes that happen - yes we have been having some lovely weather here. 

My post today will 'tidy up' our Paris visit.

We always try to fit in a visit to Parc Montsouris on our last morning in Paris.

It was a bit chilly, but sunny.



We sat on this bench with our coffees as it was too shaded in front of the kiosk - hmm.....no photo of the coffee!




We've never seen this croc before!


The kiosk from the other side of the lake






We walked through lots of street art to get to a restaurant we visit regularly - Chez Nennesse.




 






Hubby often 'helps me out' with desserts - this was a delicious chocolate and pear tart. If we hadn't been going to catch Eurostar home I would probably have taken half away with me. As you may see he had a cheesecake of his own.

The people on the table beside us moved out so I snapped this quickly before the table became occupied again - Brigitte is now 88 years old.
From here it was back to our hotel pick up our bags.......but my Paris story isn't over yet....

Thanks for looking, Chris

I was SOOOOOOOOOOO impressed with the murals. Not a single tag or graffiti marking these. Parisians obviously respect others' murals.

Lovely statues amid the flowers, too. Just beautiful.

Your chocolate and pear tart looks good, but so does T's cheesecake. Thanks for taking us on this off-the-beaten-path through a part of Paris few tourists will ever see. Thanks, too for sharing your desserts and waters with us for T this Tuesday.

Fab art and pictures, Chris. I had no idea there was that much you could just see on the streets. Wonderful post.

Your dessert looks like the best so I totally see why your sweet hubby wanted to try it.

Happy T-day late. Hugz

What?? A Croc in Paris??? A beautiful park that would certainly clear out quickly if I had seen crocodile.
Your desserts look delicious and the art on the way to the restaurant is fabulous!!
Happy Belated Tea Day,
