Happy Wanderer

Here I am in the Place des Vosges with a baguette of ham and cheese, attracting the attention of some pigeons. My visit to the Marais district featured a shop selling something called "Yiddish Sandwiches" (if only a sandwich could speak!), and an Art Nouveau synagogue designed by Guimard in disrepair but open again (since I spotted it shuttered over ten years ago).

Bonjour Patrice:
I am happy to see that you made it across the pond safely and that you are partaking in some French delicacies. I assuume that in the next few days, you will also be taking the French fashion world by storm.

Your referencing Yiddish sandwiches put me in mind of Diane Dion's mother who once said, "Every once in awhile, I like a good Gentile hotdog." Mais oui.
