Photos from walking around in Paris.
These photos were taken at the Jardins des Plantes in Paris – the Botanical Gardens of Paris, if you will. This garden is completely free, had many blooming flowers even in October, and has several nice exhibits for kids and people like me who are nil with biology. One exhbit chronicals the millions of years of history of the earth while you’re walking – you just have to see to believe it!
had to get me some boots for paris – can’t do the sneakers here!
Many, Many street photos – including this little cafe – where I accidentally ordered LIVER…oh la.. (it said BOEUF!)
This is what people do, alll dayyy – hang in cafe’s – rain or shine.
These photos were taken at one of my favorite spots in Paris – The Jardins du Luxembourg. They were originally built to please Queen Marie de Medici, Henri IV’s widow – I guess she was feeling homesick. So this reminded her of Florence. It’s now the home of the Senate, and is a central place to play tennis, chess, or just walk around. It contains over a 100 statues of some of the women of France.
