I just got back last week from a
truly incredible trip to France.
Running Man and I were in Paris
enjoying the iconic sights.
The Louvre
Notre-Dame
Paris is a huge city with so much to
see, do and taste.
We were only
able to explore a small portion of what
the City of Light has to offer.
We were on a Tauck Tour called
Savoring France: Paris, Lyon, and Provence
with a 7 night river cruise on the Rhone.
While in Paris we had the extraordinary opportunity
to have a class at Le Cordon Bleu Paris.
We were so excited.
with all the equipment laided out, and an
assistant who would whisk away our
dirty equipment.
What were we making?
Our delicious chocolate macarons
Now I'm a graduate!
What did we do with all of our chocolate macarons?
I did say they were delicious!!!
All too quickly we had to leave Paris
and head to Lyon to board our ship,
the MS Emerald.
I'll share more on another post.
Wishing you many adventures,
Kyle
Wow Kyle! Thank you for sharing! Looks like you truly had a fantastic time.
ReplyDeleteWhat a wonderful opportunity. Sounds like an amazing vacation. Look forward to seeing more. (The macarons look delish)
ReplyDeleteFabulous photos and thank you for sharing your grand adventure! My daughter-in-law loves to make macarons...yours look c’est magnifique!! :-) How exciting for you and Running Man.
ReplyDeleteOh, this looks so very exciting! And I love the idea of the cooking class!
ReplyDeleteDH has always said we need to take a river cruise someday, so I am curious to hear your impressions.
Looking forward to more of your adventures!

ReplyDeleteNow that looks like fun! Everything looks amazing, including your macaroons! One thing that stood out though was the part about the assistant whisking away your dirty equipment, now that is fabulous. lol
ReplyDeleteI am so happy you got to have this experience!! Yahoo!!
ReplyDeleteThat looks like so much fun! A river cruise sounds much more appealing than an ocean cruise, looking forward to the next installment!
ReplyDeleteWhat an awesome experience! So glad you are having this kind of fun this summer!
ReplyDeleteThat looks like an amazing trip!! Your macaroons looked so light and fluffy!

Your trip sounds like a lot of fun. We just got home from a river cruise too, the Danube for us. We enjoyed it so much, I want to do another one.
ReplyDeleteWhat a wonderful trip and looking forward to seeing more of it :)
ReplyDeleteOh, to be taught how to make macarons at Gordon Blue in France....... how is that for a bucket list thing? It looks like a wonderful trip, would love to see pictures of Lyon too, have never been there, but is high on my list (also because of the food :-) ).
ReplyDeleteThat was a wonderful start of your trip! Those Macarons look perfect. I can imagine how good they were!
ReplyDeleteOh my goodness, what a fabulous trip! Your macaroons look absolutely yummy. Love your official 'chef' outfits. Looking forward to seeing more photos :)
ReplyDeleteTres Chic! Can't wait to see more. How did you like the river cruise? I've only been on sea cruises.
ReplyDeleteHow fun to take a Cordon Blu class - amazing! Don't you make expert cupcakes??
Paris is my favorite city. So impressed with your cooking class. And macaroons seem so difficult to make... easy to consume, though!
ReplyDeleteI'll be anxious to hear about how you liked the Tauck river cruise. I've heard great things about that cruise company!
And now... let me introduce you the Queen of Macarons !!! Tadaaaam !
ReplyDeleteWonderful! Thanks for sharing - it's on my Bucket List!
ReplyDeleteWonderful pictures from Paris.
ReplyDeleteHow amazing to take a cooking lesson at Le Cordon Bleu!
Your macarons look super professional as well as delicious.
What a fabulous adventure thru France - Enjoy!!
Can't wait to see and hear more.
What an amazing trip - I loved following along on Instagram :0) Looking forward to the "more" !
ReplyDeleteThis looks like a dream come true. I love it!!! When you get home you are going to have to do a picture tutorial on making macarons. I have always wanted to try it. Were they had to make?
