Back in Paris…….

I have not managed to get my face away from Marathon des Sables images now for 18 days. 10 days in the desert and 8 back here in Paris.  But I have been out!  I thought I would post on a beautiful walk two nights ago before I post a few insights from the MdS. This, though is probably the most important lesson from the desert and one we lose sight of all too easily. Time spent enjoying what is around us.  We walked down to the Seine two nights ago, took a bottle of champagne and just sat in the cool spring evening before going out to eat.  It was a sublime time that lasted about an hour and was followed by beautiful food and wine.

The MdS teaches us a lot but there are mant things we miss if we don’t take the time to look around and enjoy……….
