find - a parisian valentine

Last spring, my sister and I visited the most romantic city in the world; Paris (sigh*) Although the people were not all that sweet, the architecture, gardens, palaces, metro, boulevards, unique districts, artisan shops, cafe/bistro life, culture, language and baguettes were amazing! I became adamant on discovering the city by foot, and my beloved sister and I walked around the city for days, both of us had never walked around a city that much. My sense of direction decided to leave me on that trip, but luckily she was the most perfect guide (having visited Paris before). I was amazed at the uniformity of the architecture, and how large the city actually is. Although, in the day, Paris is quite busy, towards the evening, Paris chills out, as groups of youth, friends and couples picnic by the the Seine (always with a bottle of wine). Paris with it's black roofs, impressive white-stone medieval, baroque and neo-classical architecture, desserts displayed in windows, and pretty ladies wearing heels on cobblestone streets you are full of an elegant attitude! This valentines, my mind and heart drift to the romantic streets of Paris, and the light and dusty images below paint a perfect picture of my nostalgia for the city of love.
