Home at St.Maur, France

(Paris, 05 April - 18 April 2006)

We stayed at my hubby's brother's apartment in St.Maur - a very quaint small town outside of Paris.

Wah, no lift leh. Long way up and down- very shiong.


Here, boy-boy, can you try to walk up by yourself? you're rather heavy and Uncle here don't have the strength to carry you all the way to the top..pant... pant......


The 2 children opening up the presents that we had brought from Singapore.


The brothers making chinese dumplings.






It was delicious, especially on a cold day. Well done guys!


Fresh scallops from the market......


to our dinner table


grilled scallops with garlic and olive oil - absolutely yummy!






The 2 bros sitting on kids' chairs watching TV - luckily the chairs did not break.


The street where we stayed


See me standing there?- we were staying on the top floor.

In one of the parks










At hubby's niece's horse-riding school (niece with her papa)




At niece's school.
Niece and me holding small pretty flowers in our hands to show.
Hubby's wondering what's these 2 gals doing - so hiow.....



Pizza on wheels with a chimney. Using wood for fire.


Turn the handle for water. Not sure why there's a tap there but i guess it's to clean if you step on any dogs' poo which are all over the place.


On way to the train station.


Walk by the river.
