I think you're onto something with your novel idea. Also, I'm glad to have someone confirm that it rains a lot in Paris. I thought it was just my bad luck that it rains whenever I'm there!
Love this! I had an umbrella I loved that I'd bought in Paris years ago - compact but with a strap from the tip to the end of the handle so you could wear it cross-body. I lost it, but this last September when I was in Paris I found it again at the same amazing shop on Boulevard St Michel: Parapluies Simon. Umbrellas are their niche and they do them well - since the 19th Century! My new one was très chère, but I love love love it. And it's red.

Thank you for the encouragement! As for the rain, yes Confirmed ha! But Paris is so beautiful even sous la pluie, non ? :-)
Awwww....love it!! Tu écris ton roman en anglais ou en français?
En anglais bien sûr ! Mais peut-être un jour je peux en écrire en français--on va voir :-)

j'adore ! Merci pour ce commentaire fascinant. On a besoin des scientifiques là -- fais-tu des cartes de vin français aussi ? :-)

Oh, I will check out that shop, merci ! Since I can't use my other umbrella, ha :-)
Une belle histoire! J’adore vos images! What a lovely cafe to fall in love in ☕️
And best of luck on the novel — I’d gladly read a French-themed thriller.
Merci pour l'encouragement ! And yes, Chez Georges is a must if you're ever in the neighborhood :-)
