For the fortunate ones in Paris, there was an interview on ABC Brisbane today with mention of this new exhibition

Exhibition Paris 1874 Inventing impressionism

150 years ago, on April 15, 1874, the first impressionist exhibition opened in Paris. “Hungry for independence”, Monet, Renoir, Degas, Morisot, Pissarro, Sisley and Cézanne finally decided to free themselves from the rules by holding their own exhibition, outside official channels: impressionism...

Thank you @LinaLee for paying the deposit.

I am not sure how keen the restaurant will be on split bills. I am also mindful that @LinaLee needs to get her €200 back! Well, what's left after her meal that is!

So I will give her first option to pay on her CC, otherwise I will step up!

Please bring cash to help settle up, just in case.

I have some loose change somewhere.....

Yeah sorry misread it and thought edit covered it

We detoured to Bruge. Pierre n Madeleine had their moment on Lovers Bridge.

Pierre decided to dive into the canals for a swim

Fortunately he made it to the banks. A shower and disinfection was the worst outcome. A good ending story

And I’ve now arrived in Paris after a MAD layover.

@LinaLee, Mrs L and I are heading to Taittinger tomorrow for a tasting. Then Mrs L and I are off to Paris on Friday.

At that temperature, I guess not just Pierre, everyone might wanna jump into the canal to cool off

Will be there in just under a month's time.
More of this please.
Was worried about it being too cool in early May.
By the way 26 is about the lowest maximum we have had in Perth for about the last five months

Same @ols. Just a little late for the AFF lunch but I'm sure they'll leave some champagne for us!

You might be right. Although on yesterday's tour Mrs L and I did get an 'off the books' tasting.

Pierre is back in top form after his adventure and even recovered to join us for dinner last night at a local restaurant serving wonderful French food.

On the way to Paris nice and early.
