After a warm, late summer and a cool, rainy beginning of fall, the leaves are starting to change their colors. Some of the effervescent green leaves have transitioned to burnished reds and golden yellows.
Take a walk with me today through the Jardin des Plantes and the Marais as we delight in the shades of autumn. Come kick the leaves with me and hear the sound of them crunch when we walk over them. Let’s take a deep breath and take in the smell of the dank leaves after the rain.
