First view of Paris - outside the Gare du Nord.
As it turned out, this is the last CLEARLY marked Métro entrance we'd see all day. (OK, it was 35C and we were REALLY cranky.)
This is the STUNNING sky-light at the Galeries Lafayette.
Sculpture in a courtyard of the Paiais Royale
A nice place to sit and try and catch a breeze.
Jeanne D'Arc in front of the Hotel Regina.
Through sheet luck, we stumbled into Jardin des Tuileries. Amazing place, we sat in the shade and ate macarons. We felt better.
Umm, yeah. I was hot not dead.
La Comedie - 1874
Le Serment de Spartacus - 1869
I have no idea what this was and I'm not sure I'd want to know.
Wow, it's a warm Métro ride away.
L'arc de Triomphe. We didn't climb - the line was long.
It doesn't appear any closer, does it?
Laurie Anderson once said "Tourists take pictures to prove they were there. Film-makers make movies because they weren't." That's me in the black. In 35C weather.
The only line that was manageable was the one where you had to WALK up to the first level. We declined. Next time, promise.
