Exploring Paris

A beautiful, sunny day in Paris, and we set out to find a particular restaurant in the Cite area, only to find that it was no longer there. The coffee shop, JP's in Holland, has a photo display of people who have had their picture taken in front of that restaurant. Oh, well....We walked along the Seine, past the beautiful Notre Dame Cathedral, noting that there is already an increase in tourists all over the city. We found a little place to eat, and then headed back to our apartment. We used the train, metro, and bus, needing our maps, for sure!
Steve Soper came to our apartment to help us learn about setting up and using a blog. That was very helpful, so now we need to practice!
We later welcomed a visit from a newly married Chinese couple, Anita and Ken, who will be moving to El Monte, CA, where he lives and works. At their wedding this past week, they used the opportunity to witness to their faith, and how God had brought them together. He speaks 7 languages, and Anita has been a translator in the Chinese churches here in Paris. Such a gracious and appreciative couple......
Au revoir....Sharon
