On the street, a pink scooter...

Now, that's my style!

    Oooh! We can tandem, Genie. :) Or perhaps start a pink scootercade, as I imagine I'm not the only one who wants to join you...

    Serait-ce le scooter de Grégory Peck et Audrey Hepburn dans "Vacances romaines", repeint en rose?...
    Bonne fin de semainre, Genie!

    Love it-- highly recommend you do not drive it around Paris, though, or "zoom-zoom" could turn into "crash-badaboum." == Veronique (French Girl in Seattle)

    I saw a pink Vespa in a shop window in Paris once and thought it was the cutest thing ever!

    I wish I could have one of these waiting for you in Paris with a giant bow on it and a sign that says, " Joyeux Anniversaire Chère Genie! Have a wonderful time zoom-zooming on the Metro, buses and on foot through your beloved Paris! Gros bisous!

    My daughter would love that! I actually think I saw a pink scooter when I was in Paris a few years ago.

    Lets zoom-zoom together, love it! Wonderful image - brings me back to the 1950's vespa-time.

    Very cute! But, who can take you seriously on Pepto-Bismol pink scooter?

    I'm with Shell. But if we can't all have one, I'd love to see you zoom-zooming around Paris on one of these cute scoots!

    This reminds me of the movie "Roman Holiday", though that was a Black & white movie.

    It's getting too cold for scooters.

    Well, Starman, the weather today in Paris is just perfect. In the early afternoon even the cold-natured Parisians were throwing off sweaters.

    I rode the RER-B in to Paris from CDG airport and then walked to my hotel. When I popped up at the street level the first time, I was facing Notre Dame and the Seine - Be still my beating heart! I took photos all the way to the hotel as "you can never create this perfect moment" again.

    I met the talented Winterludes and her lovely daughter this afternoon and will post about that when I return. We celebrated our birthdays with some wonderful tea (and gateau) for her daughter.

    Tomorrow early I will be at Marche Maubert with my camera and photos (to give to my subjects) again. Peter and I are meeting up to explore after that. I will update and always read the comments daily.

    Paris, je l'adore!

    Et bon anniversaire à toi! Sorry I am late with my greeting, but a lot has been going on.

    I just love knowing that you are in Paris at this very minute soaking up all the sites with thine own eyes and camera!
