destinations

 “One’s destination is never a place, but a new way of seeing things.” - Henry Miller

a. took this photo on a paris street a few months ago.  funny that kath should have brought this topic to the table because a. and i were off to paris in december, he had a meeting scheduled and i was tagging along on points.  yesterday he called from the office to say the meeting had been moved to january, in mexico.  now i like mexico, been there a couple of times, but........paris......come on people.  the internet and i had the whole trip planned.  i was so ready.

i would love to go back to israel, walk down the narrow streets of the old city in jerusalem, so much to see, so much history, a truly magical place. 

but if i could pick anywhere, i think i would want to go to morocco.  i was there many many years ago but lately i find my mind drifting over there.  i will stay here at the peacock pavilion and i will make friends with maryam.  i will go to the medina and take pictures like this.

meanwhile speaking of traveling, i ran to jamaica the other day, met christina over at soul aperture and she sent me to see paris parfait.   tara has beautiful beautiful paris photos, just in case the soeurs du jour never get there.

great post and photos...and make sure that you DO go to Paris someday. Paris is more wonderful than you can even imagine.

Like you, I someday hope to go to Peacock Pavillions. I love the spices you've found for us!

Here is the beautiful spice shop I found in Venice last year. It was closed, so I could only look in the window and admire:
