I wish I could report that we thoroughly enjoyed looking at the lights along the Champs Elysees, seeing The Golden Compass and going to the ballet. I wish I could...
Due to unforeseen circumstances we only stayed one night and came back Monday morning without having done any of the planned things. One thing we did do was have a great saunter around looking at some of the lovely shop windows. Here are a few that caught my eye.

This was my first bash at using the night landscape setting on my camera and they are a bit blurry. I think I'll have to get a tripod and go out and experiment a bit.
Our bichons were looked after in our house by a lovely person and barely noticed we'd gone.
So now it's the countdown to Christmas and, even though our trip was a quick one, it was still nice to spend a bit of time in Paris. It really has replaced London as My Favourite City; maybe that's a bit unpatriotic, but they really have kept the centre totally exquisite with no modern monstrosities spoiling the eyeline.
