Paris views old and new

What I mean is: a couple on this short slideshow everyone has seen, others not.

    Looks lovely (with the notable exception of the taxidermy), but I’m sure you are pining for ice hockey on the Alster. ;-)

    On the Alster, in Holland… yes, I’d rather be three places at once right now. There is ice here too – thick enough to skate on – but I’ve only seen one lake with blade marks on it, and that was today at the Bois de Vincennes to the east of the city.

    Such a nice collection of photos – especially enjoyed having the scrabble and the “views from a room with a view” included.

    Two places at once is tough – three places at once might require real cloning!

    Rooms with a view – I wish! The shots from above were taken from the Eiffel Tower. I can’t believe I’d been here so often and never gone up, but the crowds had always put me off. That day there was no line-up at all, but we couldn’t go to the top because of high winds. So I had to content myself with the second level, and now have a reason to go back to make it all the way to the top one day.

    *Great* shots, Ian — and a great cross-section of Paris’ many facets. As for the Eiffel Tower: If it’s of any consolation, the view from the third level is only marginally more impressive than the view from étage deux. Still … it’s always nice to have an excuse to go back, isn’t it?

    Absolutely. If you’re going to be going all the way to Paris, and standing in line all that time as most are forced to do, why go only to the first or second level? As a consolation we did take the stairs to go down, which is a little bit of an adventure.

    Just thinking about the patisseries on rue de Seine has my mouth watering. Oh dear…

    Love that pink, green and yellow row – is it possible for a street to look any more, well, Parisienne!

    Fabulous, especially the shots from up above
