Too much beauty to fit into pixels

Saint-Chapelle--pictures don't do it justice.

I don't know who this his. He doesn't know who I am, either.

  1. Dear Amy, thanks for posting this blog. I get to reconnect with you in Paris. I wish I could be there to experience it with you. I will check daily to see what adventures you are having. Have a wonderful time.

  2. Very pretty. I'm trying to picture the beauty of Versaille set against the French Revolution, all those peasants grabbing nobles and taking them away to the guillotines. Mind you, I can imagine if you were a peasant living in squallor and the ruling classes lived with such beauty, I would be a tiny bit angry.

I love hearing from all the wonderful people in my life, even from the other side of the world.
