Paris Journal: Our First Visitors

Today my brother Louis and sister-in-law Janet came to see our apartment in Paris—our very first guests. They flew in from their summer research sojourn in Florence and stopped in Paris, before heading to London, then New York, then back home to Austin, Texas, in time for what we call in France la rentrée: the beginning of the academic year.

We introduced them to the delights of our neighborhood, strolling down avenue du Géneral Leclerc to rue d’Alésia, where we lunched at Cafe Zeyer, an art-deco brasserie in the grand style. It was magnifique to see them!

    Really happy Lou and Janet could come to visit you in Paris. Remember when he showed the two of us around Florence for the first time. Now you got to return the favor, but in Paris.
