flattery..............

ok, so this morning. one of our 70-ish customers stopped by to ask me what 2 things i would do in paris on a rainy day................he and his new wife were leaving this afternoon for 2 weeks in an apartment on the quai grenelle....which is between musee d'orsay and tour eiffel................i first suggested lunch at musee jaquemart-andre...in the lovely dining room with the frescoed ceiling.......or lunch at musee d'orsay in the ballroom.............i was so flattered that this person sought me out for francofile tips.......................of course.....my january encounter with rick steves at st. sulpice has already been reported in the paper....so even those who have no idea that i have been to paris 11 times at least knew i had recently traveled to my favorite place................
