Susan begins our three -part travelog with Sante Fe/ Taos, New Mexico for art, native peoples and the Spanish influence. Mary takes on “one of her most fascinating recent hiking trips” to the Portuguese influenced Azores and Joe invites us to flaneur with him during an April in Paris week of the Paris Marathon. Beginning in the remarkably beautiful Marais Place de Vosges and ending in St. Chapelle royal jewel box. Maison Laduree macarons, anyone?
