We spent last week-end in Paris to celebrate Christmas with my family a month later. Half grey/half colourful. With moods, ups and downs, sun and rain but we got together again. And even had a great feel of Paris. If you click below, you can discover a new bakery and some hidden Parisian treasures as well as some portraits of Eliott and Lily of course! We went to the Georges Pompidou center and saw Cy Twombly exhibition:The view is amazing, even if you wouldn't like the exhibitions, you can just go for that!Paris has seen the growth of many types of patisseries and bakeries lately. Some more specialised than others. Some more worth it than others.I discovered thanks to my mum a new bakery that is worth mentioning here. It has less sugar and tastes amazing. If you ever pass by Paris, go and check Yann Couvreur and taste his "eclairs au chocolat", it's beautiful and subtle at the same time.Another thing I love in Paris is the variety of markets. So of course we went to buy some fresh and sea food (especially the things I miss so much when I'm up north!)This lady thought she would look horrible and said sorry many times, but I think she looks really good!There was also a small flee market by my parent's place. I wanted to buy everything there:I like where my mum has moved in Paris because it's full of hidden alleys, wall art and quirky gardens which is quite unusual for most of the city:And a few more of course!Time flies in such a week-end and reunions are sort of bittersweet. Good but short. Hope you all have a good week!
Little pit stop in Paris- exhibitions I recommend!
Our kids were two weeks away from Brussels in my parents places (Burgundy and Vendée in France) and we went to pick them up in Paris after they took the accompanied train (like in planes, you know, but in the train with 20 other kids and 5 adults to take care of you with games and songs and all!). So happy to see them after that long!
