Paris and Giverny, June 2009

A business trip on which I brought both my camera and Samantha. We spent most of the time in Paris where I was working, but managed to squeeze in a day-trip to Claude Monet's house and garden in Giverny (now a museum, of course). The flowers in Monet's garden were in full bloom, as the pictures below show.
