I went to Paris to attend my aunts birthday. I spent a few great autumn days there with my family and girlfriend. We had dinner at Gare d'Lyon wich sports a fabulous "belle epoque" restaurant, "Le train bleu", with a breathtaking ballroom like dining room. If you're around, go there.

We stayed at "Belle vue" on rue de Turbigo, also in belle epoque style. The hotel is a bit rough, but mostly in a good way. That's where I found the wallpaper for the illustration. I'm collecting things like that.
