New Year’s Day I took a walk with Tamie in Parc Montsouris located in the 14th arrondissement. It’s been on my list forever but until I moved to the 8th near the line 13 metro, it seemed inconvenient to get to.  There is also a little “village” of houses along rue Nansouty that faces the park that I’d read about in a book I carry around called  Paris Secret et Insolite (which is also published in English).  Cute houses!  Made me have a little house envy which thankfully was brief.

The park is actually not that hard to get to no matter what part of town you’re coming from and I have to say, I was silly to have not gone before.  It’s really lovely and they let you sit on the grass .  Spring picnic, here I come…..
