Greetings from Paris on Bastille Day

Vive la France!  

It's July 14th, the national holiday of France, and here I am in the City of Lights.  The French capital was in a festive mood today. After enduring some tough economic times, this proud nation feels a need to relax and celebrate,  On a special Sunday, everyone enjoyed the sunshine and the culinary delights of this most romantic of cities.  There is nothing like French food.

I visited Notre Dame Cathedral, strolled through the Latin Quarter and took an evening boat ride on the Seine River.  The Eiffel tower was lit up in all its glory.  I wish you could all be here with me. Since that's not possible, here are some photos below.
