Photos from Paris! Part One.
Paul and I stayed for three weeks in a tiny studio apartment in Belleville, a homey neighborhood populated largely by non-Europeans. On every block was a Chinese grocery, a Kosher butcher, and an Arabic bookstore-- each one frequented by local regulars who all seemed to know each other.
We kept seeing tile Space Invaders around the city. This is the corner opposite our building.
The stairs to our apartment!
From the patisserie around the corner-- a pistachio custard and a fruit tart. I visited there every morning to buy a baguette and some croissants for breakfast.
The western view from our little living room. It rained a lot while we were there, but on this early evening we got a treat!
