After an egg breakfast with Barbara, we take a wander

To the Pompidou building, where Miro finds a balloon

That later escapes to the very top of Opera,

Waving its mischievous tail.

We wonder if we could come back home,

Open our window on the 11th floor

And have it float back inside at that very moment.

But in anticipation, we visit the Grands Magasins Christmas lights

And see another kind of magic...
