Pictures from Paris

These are pictures I took last year when I went to Paris; it is an amazing city and I have very dear memories of the days I spent there. The glaring lights of the Eiffel Tower at night, the never ending and almost frightening narrow spiral staircase of Notre Dame, the thoughtful and mysterious Gargoyles gazing at the show night and day, boîtes à musique playing La Vie En Rose, everything has a place in my heart. But the things I remember the most when I close my eyes and try to remember are its colours and its architecture, the paintings in the museums, the streets, the reflection of the sun on the Seine and all the art you can breathe there. (I will stop here, before I get too nostalgic. nostalgic Mari is the worst)
I chose my favourite pictures, but they're still a lot, I hope you don't mind :)
The first ones were taken on the way to Paris, so you can see the Alps, corners of Switzerland and other parts of France.
Here they are, please enjoy this little journey to Paris through my eyes and photographs.

Beaded trees and flowers

Crafts made by my mother Virna [beads-poet]
 She's been working with glass beads and wire for quite some time;
 I take a lot of pictures of her works, if you want to see more please go to her deviantART gallery linked above~
the second craft, a beaded Hyacinth, was made following Elena [korizza.net]'s tutorial which you can find here.

(it's in Russian but you can rely on Google Translator like we did OTL I wish I knew Russian)
