Dear Jolly Porter (whom I've never met),
Que je suis jalouse! I long to return to France, and most especially to see Paris. I was so close...just a mission boundary away.
But I beg to differ about one thing. I found the French eventually warmed up to Americans, as long as the Americans didn't speak French like a Spanish cow. But that was so long ago...and times have changed.
Loved the beautiful photos. I could almost taste the baguettes, the créme fraîche and the smoke-filled rooms. The art and the architecture are so fabulous!
So, as a display of my gratitude, I am going to return the favor. When I return from Finland (in September) I will post the photos just for you. I can't promise a witty travelogue; so the photos will have to do. I hope they'll be worth the wait!
Ametiés,
Compulsive Writer

Wow. Exactly ONE MONTH later Lisa tells me about this post. I'm so sorry not to have seen it sooner. I need to be better about checking blogs.
Thanks for the Helsinki pics. I can smell the mermaids....
