Paris cafe - What I'm Loving

Bonjour and welcome to What I'm Loving This Week. Here's an autumn photo I took last year as I was sitting at Café Le Bonaparte in Saint-Germain-des-Prés on the Left Bank. Café Le Bonaparte is a cosy cafe with a bright red, blue and white striped awning diagonally opposite the Saint-Germain des Pres Church.
