Paris Lunch Break

November 6, 2009

Paris, France.  Resting my feet at an outdoor cafe in the Tuileries Gardens before the wanderings continued.  The Tuileries are the oldest and largest public park in Paris which connect the Louvre Museum and the Arc de Triomphe.

Sometimes I keep my favorite photographs to myself.  This image was taken in Paris, France and it always brings back so many fond memories I decided to share it with the world rather than keep it hidden on my computer.  There is nothing special about it, just a simple little bakery outlined in blue. Enjoy.

Notre Dame de Paris (which means “Our Lady of Paris”) had a wonderful singing chorus performing for the public.  I wonder if they minded me laying on the ground to get the shot?

Location: Paris, France.  Near the Notre Dame, this small alley smelled of sugar and chocolate while being home to many  stickers, stencil graffiti, and art like this alley cat.
