At the Pompidou Center fountain -- you know, the one that reminds a person of the photoshoot in the Julia Ormond "Sabrina."

I like how the French won't just clean or renovate a building's facade -- they'll put up faux facades so as not to offend anyone's sensibilities.

the girls' first see-saw experience (poor American kids) -- there's one in every Parisian playground we've been to

In a basket-like hut on a bridge
Shakespeare & Co. This is where we bought a few books, and also where we think LBH lost the illuminated manuscript he'd just bought from a bridge bookseller (sad!).

Notre Dame
The pro-lifers are out in force (I guess) -- can't think of any other reason this symbol would be all over town.

Really great photos. Aren't you glad you're visiting Paris this time of year?
ReplyDeleteIsn't Paris in septembre magnifique? It looks as though you are loving life in France - I hope that all the transitions go smoothly for you, and that you have a wonderful time!
ReplyDeleteWhat great memories of France. Was good to see again some of the same locations when we were there years ago. You all look as though all is well with the whole event. Look like the new camera was a success - the photographs are beautiful. Are there any male students in the group? Keep the information coming - we just love it! Lots of love from Mum and Dad.
