Since there have been so many entries to the Bastille Day Contest, I’m adding two more prizes. (Please follow the link to the Bastille Day Contest to see other prizes and rules).
Un grand prix et un petit prix.
GRAND PRIX
Michael Schürmann, author of Paris Movie Walks, and his wife Marlys will offer a free walking tour of Montmartre for anyone who will be in Paris during the coming twelve months. Michael and Marlys live in the neighborhood, and so did Amelie! (Please mention in the comments if you are interested in this prize.) To get a flavor for what you will see, buy Michael’s book, Paris Movie Walks: Ten Guided Tours Through the City of Lights! Camera! Action!
.
Two to three hours in duration and worth 60 Euros (Today that is $75.50 U.S.)
Petit: A USED BOOK
I usually do not put used books (purchased used) in a Giveaway, but this one is in near pristine condition, and someone is going to enjoy it. Failing Paris is a quirky and rather sad little book about a young woman spending a short time in Paris. Paperback published in 2003. (Originally published in England in 1999.)
Oh my goodness! I would love to do a walking tour of Montmartre. I need to convince Marlene we need to go to Paris asap! -r
I love Montmartre. I actually used to own a studio apartment there. I loved the smell, the atmosphere, the steps, the shops, the artists, the history …. I am envious of your trip. No way I can get to France for the time being. But, we do have a bit of France on Cape Cod right now with our new PB Boulangerie Bistro. By coincidence, I wrote about it on my blog today.
