Leaving Paris. I realized I don't have my neck pillow, so I just had to buy Rémy, star of Ratatouille!

STEAK-FRITES
Ok, these are small frieds potatoes, not really 'frites, ' but the flank steak with gorgonzola sauce was to die for. Vive la France.

STUFFED
Yesterday my friends and I went to visit the basilica at Saint-Denis, dating from 1130, a fine example if the 'new' Gothic art. Afterwards I treated them to a couscous. I LOVE couscous and stuffed myself. The picture my friend took is a bit blurred, but that works to my advantage.

THEME DAY -DECEMBER: FURRY THINGS
This is my granddaughter's dog, Koko, aka The Destroyer of soft toys.
She's had this toy for quite a while, but recently is hell-bent on destroying it. Stuffing all over the place. I've left the stuffing out and she still plays with it. She's found and removed the whistle, but still loves the toy, a sloth.

CONNECTING
This passageway connects two main streets in Belgrade, though from this photo you wouldn't know. There are a number of such passages here. Does your city have any?

SHY ACCORDIONIST?
This was a hip shot and I was not looking at the fellow. He either noticed me and turned away, or just turned away anyhow and I could not see.
