We are on our way to Amsterdam to lead a four-day retreat with a few stops along the way.   First Paris, where I got to engage my brain again with French, stayed with friends and Tara gave a lecture at the Apollo Theater.   We stayed in the Marais Arrondisment... Just down from the Pompidou Center.    

Top of D'Orsay    

Epic flooding on the Seine.

Peak flooding    

A surprise march. About 100 mounted soldiers ... followed by a street cleaner.    

Another surprise in the Marais. Carnivale!    

Seven days of rain.    

On to Switzerland for some hiking where we understand there is rain and then a bit more rain with a chance of snow.
