Bonjour mes amis: We've been thinking long and hard about what to write in this journal since we've had the privilege of being the very first guests of Stephanie and Darrell. But it's hard to describe what a wonderful time we've had. Every day brought new adventures. Paris is spectacular; our apartment was perfect and we couldn't have asked for better "landlords." We can see why Stephanie and Darrell have chosen to live here. The sites, sounds and of course, the cuisine are superb. I don't thinkthe French know how to make a bad meal! Looking back, we think our favorite day was our first day. We had nothing special planned, just wanted to get acquainted with the local neighborhood. Stephanie gave us some streets to wander through--rue Lamark, Place de Clichy. We just started walking and stumbled onto the Moulin Rouge and then this wonderful little place (Place du Tertre) with local artists and then Sacre Coeur is right in front of us. All in our own neighborhood.
We were a little concerned about not staying closer to the center of town. But this was perfect! Once we mastered the bus routine, we were glad to come back each day to our quiet neighborhood where you seldom run into another tourist. Please read the folder prepared by Stephanie. There's lots of good information. She and Darrell were extremely helpful. They were available to answer all of our questions. That made the trip so much easier. Au revoir to Paris and to our new friends, Stephanie and Darrell. We're already planning our next trip.
(Bernie, Mary and Lori)

Like your previous two sets of guests, we found the apartment at 68 rue Joseph de Maistre ideally located to launch our Paris (and especially Montmartre) adventures. For my daughter Emily and I, this is our first trip outside of North America. For my wife, it is the first time back in 26 years. A sure measure of the fun we have had is the way we collapse into bed each night in utter exhaustion. While we have really enjoyed dining at the local cafes and restaurants (especially La Petite Syrah), we have taken special pleasure in bringing home prepared foods, breads, wines and pastries from the local shops and enjoying them right here at the window. So many thanks!
