In my mind the Mona Lisa has shrunk ...I love this!<br /><br />In my mind the Mona Lisa has shrunk to nothing, too. My husband told me how small the painting is so I think I've made it quite wee mentally. <br /><br />I really love your dresses--they do seem like such perfect traveling dresses--comfortable, wrinkle-resistant, and classic. I am actually starting to toy with familiarizing myself w/ Alabama Chanin as a result. <br /><br />Everything you are doing seems like something we would do while there, so I am really enjoying your travelogue here!Pollyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09403233175071026416noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16182378.post-84574926499193791542012-10-19T00:08:11.428-05:002012-10-19T00:08:11.428-05:00Yes!

I had heard so many times that it is tiny, and then find that while it's not huge it is quite a respectable size.<br /><br />I am enjoying travelling the streets of Paris with you. I only spent two days there, and would love to go back some day.Jodeshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10002962502220567289noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16182378.post-78355949076796779172012-10-18T21:39:30.374-05:002012-10-18T21:39:30.374-05:00Thank you, thank you, for letting us enjoy your au...Thank you, thank you, for letting us enjoy your autumn in Paris with you. Sigh . . .<br /><br />You're visiting some of the places I remember so fondly from 24 years ago - perhaps it's time to go back?<br /><br />I highly recommend a side trip to the cathedral at Chartre. You will not regret it. If you can tour with Malcolm Miller, you'll remember it always.Pamhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16174689614784153389noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16182378.post-86356788318294009272012-10-18T20:31:48.559-05:002012-10-18T20:31:48.559-05:00I've really been enjoying your latest posts. ...I've really been enjoying your latest posts.

For years customers in our art shop have explained how small it is in real life, it certainly has shrunk in my mind but not to postage stamp size -- yet!Rosehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14751315680374413649noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16182378.post-47833272410738914512012-10-18T16:28:11.787-05:002012-10-18T16:28:11.787-05:00I was disappointed that the Mona Lisa was under gl...I was disappointed that the Mona Lisa was under glass AND she looked like she was under strobe lights from all the people taking pictures with their flashes (huh? I didn't even think you could take pictures with a flash in a museum). We couldn't get within 20 feet of her, the crowd was HUGE. No biggie. I'm glad you are having fun in France! My biggest memory of Paris was my picky friend INSISTING on ordering a medium rare steak and then practically crying when she got meat that was still raw. Enjoy the rest of your visit. No big birthday dinner "with courses" this year?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16182378.post-63929780114013163652012-10-18T16:06:58.853-05:002012-10-18T16:06:58.853-05:00I love that dress on you.
