Our first walk in Paris Or 100 photos of the Eiffel Tower!

Well first off, thanks to Tom who has a home in Paris and thanks to Jenny C. who has just visited Paris, for signing on.

Sharon sipping on her drink of the moment while here in France, a Monaco. A generous shot of grenadine, half fill the glass with lemon soda and top it off with beer. Nice on a hot summer's day.












A lot of the following were snapshots taken on a stroll down the Rue Cler, Great street with limited car access. Lots of shops, markets with ethnic diversity, sidewalk cafes and bars. A really sensory experience




























Then we arrived at the head of the Parc du Champs de Mars. You know, where the Eiffel Tower is.



Paris is for lovers!



























This building is amazing, It's covered with some sort of membrane, waterproof one hopes. Then there are hundreds of pockets in it holding plants and mosses.
When we went by at near midinght, they were....... "watering the building."




















Took this last one as we we're getting back from our late night boat ride on the Seine. Choppy water and a cheap camera makes for great effects?! Managed to catch the moon as well at 11:30PM. 5 hours past Sharon's bedtime.!!!!
