How wonderful that they've carried on the tradition. A very special place. One day I'll get to Paris, I've only ever been to the South of France but I fell in love with the country.<br />And this excerpt made me smile. It did the first time I read it too.

I won't do that again if I'm lucky enough to have a second visit.<br /><br />Thanks for sharing,<br /><br />Rachel x<br />Rachel Brimble https://www.blogger.com/profile/07704679320900435805noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4715895375151487456.post-24776474650011249032012-11-16T11:14:30.723-05:002012-11-16T11:14:30.723-05:00Thanks, Mal.

For him, having grown up during the Jim Crow era, being able to walk into the front door of any cafe and order a cup of coffee and then having it served with a smile was a culture shock. He felt welcomed and at home in Paris as a young serviceman. Paris embraces you and changes you. I hope you get the chance to go.Vonnie Davis ~ Romance Authorhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07360480832587538895noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4715895375151487456.post-68089612347226293082012-11-16T11:09:46.441-05:002012-11-16T11:09:46.441-05:00Yes, Paricia, Shakespeare and Company has a fabulo...Yes, Paricia, Shakespeare and Company has a fabulous history, something that appeals to my fanicful nature.
