Summer weekends in Paris = busy but beautiful! We’ve been all over the city, mostly by walking (our tired feet can attest to this), to see everything from the Eiffel Tower to Pere Lachaise Cemetery, from Montmartre and the Sacre Coeur to the Le Petit Journal jazz club on Saturday night, and an organ concert in St Sulpice church by their master organist on Sunday morning (watch a video). There was even a guy on the Parc du Champ de Mars who tried the “I found a gold ring which you can have if you buy me coffee” scam! The food is amazing, the wine unbelievably cheap (but fantastic!), and we’re a bit sad to be leaving tomorrow. But there are sights, food, and wine and beer waiting for us in England, so to majestic Paris we say: Bon soir!
Woohoo!! Eiffel Tower at night – lots of sparkles! This is so much fun. The only thing better would be to meet you in Provence… :) xoxoxo
And, I’m sad that Josh can’t paint…Sad face
Colvin says the organ at St. Sulpice is his favcorite in the whole world. There is even a picture of it in the organ museum – he called is the organorama. He thinks you and Josh are quite refined and cultured. xoxo your mom/Sandy

It is such fun to hear from you and see the wonderful places you are visiting. Thanks for doing this. Love GRAM/Natalie
Wow, you made it up to the organ loft, which is something I’ve never done! Daniel Roth played at Longwood in 1981, and just this past June at Macy’s in Philadelphia on the Wanamaker Organ. You do travel in exalted circles!
