Hokusai expo
We visited the 2nd part of a grand expo on Hokusai at the Grand Palais. They changed some works after part 1, and while not as perverted as the 1st time, I think the works came across more zen like with the colors and images chosen.
bye bye Joseph McCarthy
ON THIS DAY
On Dec. 2, 1954, the Senate voted to condemn Sen. Joseph R. McCarthy for "conduct that tends to bring the Senate into dishonor and disrepute."
thanks to the New York Times for showing me the Senate is not always, always, always wrong.
in the house of Sade
another visit to the house of Sade, and a little odd bringing my mother-in-law with us.
Funny, spell check chose the word "safe" instead of "Sade". And "bringing" became "grinding"
sorry, no pics allowed, hee hee

Bastille Day fireworks or le feu d’artifice du 14 juillet
a big, big thanks to our friends for having a lovely soirée!
fantastic fireworks display in Paris for Bastille Day with extra umph this year in remembrance of the 100 years after the start of WWI.
