These photos show that it's turning into lovely spring weather! :D

Walking through the Jardins de Tuileries with a coffee on a sunny day is my idea of heaven!

Marina Saclley @ Iced VoVo's said...

After such a long and cold winter, its wonderful to feel the warmth of the sun, hear the birds chirping and see all the blossoms ... finally arriving here in London too!

Oh, Paris is magnificent at this time of the year and your photos show it off dear Mimi.
We were there last weekend and even though the skies were grey and it rained ... we still had a wonderful time.
Enjoy spring and Paris my dear friend!

Dear Mimi, thank you for reminding me on how beautiful Paris is ! I should grab the box with the photos ( yes, real paper ones) from my first visit and make a rememberance hour... Have a wonderful Spring-Sunday ! kind regards, Martina

Eve said...

Dear Mimi,
what wonderful pictures you´ve made ! Thank you so much for taking us to a little ride through springtime Paris ! This must be the most wonderful time in this beautiful city ! But:
spring is indeed the most inspiring time of the year, isn´t it `?
Thank you for your kind comment, but I won´t like my fence now or in two weeks. It IS too dark, as it was so much work I won´t paint it again. Maybe I should plant thousands of trees beneath it so that I don´t need to see it ?! :-)

Wish you a wonderful and sunny Sunday dear Mimi !
Eve

I've been loving these past sunny days! I got a full day out on Sunday when I chased my hubby around half of Paris as he was running the marathon. The Tuileries in particular were so beautiful on the early Sunday morning. Hope you're having a lovely week so far!

Obee Designs said...

Bonjour my dear Mimi!!
Isn't there something wonderful about springtime? I just love the thought of the sunshine and the hope of a new start to things as lovely as the flowers and buds on the trees. Isn't there a song about April in Paris? What a perfect time and place to be? Talk about oooh la la !!
Thanks for sharing these wonderful photos. I love the picture of the Eiffel Tower and the Tres Grande Urn! :)
I hope you are having a wonderful spring day!
XoXo

Hi Mimi~
I think I would absolutely adore Paris in spring! Or summer, or winter or fall! But spring has to be absolutely magical there! So glad you share all your fabulous pictures with us. One of these days I am going to convince my husband that I really can't go on in life without a trip there... Until then, I drool over your pictures!
