Loving your reports.
Sebastian looks older than 8 in his pictures - but you can see the little boy in him when he's wearing the chefs hat.
Luc's apartment looks like the perfect haven, especially this time of year when you can really enjoy the garden.

Seb has always looked older than his age and being an only child for so long means he's very comfortable with adults and pretty mature for his age. But he is still a little boy in so many ways and we try to be careful to remember that. Sometimes people who don't know him think he is 11 or 12 because of the way he speaks. We are really trying to tailor this trip to him and that means Grandma has to remember he can't wait 8 miles a day, lol

And yes, Luc's apartment is just fantastic. I'll post some pictures later this week and do a full report, but we would rent this place anytime. Thanks Luc! Jo

Looks like a good day!I'll take Dens pizza. You had recommended that pizza place before and David and I hve enjoyed it a few times as our regular apt. is across the street next to the VAsselerie shop. La Chimere right down the street is very good too. See you have become a fan of Speculoos !! I am so glad my grocery here in FL carries it! Have fun with the mouse!!

I'm loving your posts and your pics are fantastic!! From the great shots of you, you look about 30 - NOT married for 30 yrs with a grandson!! I love the 69 Bus, it is right on my corner and I take it whenever I can, even if it means leaving extra travel time. Enjoy your special trip!

Another wonderful day and a successful shopping trip! ;D We capped it off with a great dinner at Jeanne A about 15 minutes from our apartment. thisoldbroadsblog.blogspot.fr/2012/05/some-shopping-and-another-great-dinner.htmlToday, I'm meeting Dawn and her friends and some friends from Slow Travel for lunch at Chez l'Ami Jean. Den and Seb will probably do a picnic in front of the Eiffel Tower. Our last full day tomorrow...... Jo

Jo, I'm finally catching up with your blog while here in Paris and it's been so delightful! What a lovely grandson you have! He sounds like the kind of kid I'd love to have in my classroom. That bracelet!!! Congratulations on 30 years together! ;D

Well done Jo. I have really enjoyed reading through your blog, pleased to see you have introduced another Paris obsessive ;D ;D Don't let PPD get you down, just start planning your next trip. Going solo is the best way believe me, you can be totally self indulgent. Blow the waistline and the budget

I'm glad that your GTG lunch at Chez L'Ami Jean was a success, socially as well as gastronomically. So when's your next trip? ;D
