today...

i am struggling with a brutal week at work. or as the brits would say - the week has been total rubbish!
a few years ago my job took me on one of my first trips abroad. it was a wonderful trip, magical and exciting. there was something about nightfall in france and i vowed to return. i know someday i will. i will be strolling down cobblestone streets again and drinking copious amounts of café au lait at a curbside café. the kind of trip that makes you feel like you have been thrust back in time. sort of like a dream.
these pictures make me smile.
