To anyone who likes plants, fantastic views, and animals I must recommend the latest blog from Coco the Scottie dog who lives in South Africa. He writes at http://shookies.blogspot.com called ‘Walkies on Table Mountain’. Further down on the old blogroll opposite, between Recollections of a Vagabonde and My Capetown (same author, different style).
I will treasure ‘pee-mail’ for hours today!!
We call it pee-mail, too, when the dog stops to check and leave a reply.
I have a strict policy, though, about only reading blogs written by humans.

I think pee-mail is just so apt. It is new to me!

Try the next blog down then, My Capetown. Written by same lady but for humans!
She is a botanist and editor of Veld and Flora, the Botanical Journal of South Africa. Glorious photos and interesting subjects. Just a suggestion 🙂

I looked at the site and there are some lovely photographs, plus the dog is sweet. To answer your question: we kept the apartment in Paris, in the 9eme, but we had a house in St Leu la Foret, which is about 20 kms north of Paris. I went to high school in Enghien les Bains. After my father past away my mother moved back to Paris in an apartment in the Marais, rue des Archives. I wish I could stay in France as long as you will but with my daughters here, the cats, we don’t stay away too long. Hope you have a great time.

Thank you so much: I love the Marais, I think it is my favourite part of Paris! I must look up the places you mention on a map. When I was little we lived in France for about 18 months: I have few memories but those I have are very fond ones!
