La Défense

La Défense is the Paris financial area. It is not in the Paris intra muros city limits but just a few kilometers away on the west side. I took this view from the pedestrian bridge crossing the Seine river in Saint Cloud. You can also see the boats along the river which are house boats.

Bastille's genius

On june 7th I posted a picture of this statue called the Bastille Genius seen from the back. Here he is from the front. This statue is on the top of the July Column in the center of the Bastille square.

Motos !

You see, Ciel, Paris can be like Rome ! This was taken in the Marais and you can see lots of overcrowed parking places like that in Paris.

Paris or Rome ?

Street sceen in the 11th arrondissement. We do have a lot of vespas, scooters, motos ... in Paris ! Too much to my point of view but these look nice and old fashionned.

Back home

I couldn't help satying at the Paris Hotel while in Las Vegas ! I'm now back home and will try to start posting real Paris pictures. Honestly the work done at the Paris hotel is quite good.

Departure

Today I'm leaving from this Terminal in Charles de Gaulle airport for 3 weeks of holiday ! Couldn't wait anymore ! I'm going to California and since I did not want to put the blog on an automatic mode, Daily Photo in Paris will be off untill the end of July.

See you !

A building entrance in the 11th arrondissement.

Still that picnic night

I can't help sharing a second picture I took on that picnic night the day before yesterday. We had a terrific sunset over Notre Dame and the Seine river.

Theme day : empty

Yesterday evening we had a lovely picnic on the river bank with our friends from Quebec, Canada who are staying with us for the week... and we have emptied the bottles !
