Why do so many people go to the Louvre? To see my favourite painting teh Lacemaker?, My second favourite the Astromoner?? Possibly at a pinch the Venus de Milo??? no, all these Philistines just want to see Mona Lisa.... Come on, she isn't even pleased to see you......
and with that it's off for a stroll through Les Tuileries.....
We then walked from the Louvre to through the Jardins des Tuileries towards la Place de Concorde. Any reader of this blog knows how much I love the London Eye. Well Paris hae an equivalent... However this is a fairground ride, in open carousels, that stop at the tp to let passengers one and frighten the *@#* out of me.. however it was a lovely day and I didn't yet have a decent picture of the Arc De Triomphe!
At last a shot of teh Arc De Triomphe and the Champs Elysee.
The view of Sacre Coeur dominates the skyline from allover Paris, however to get this picture I had to twist in my seat which made outpod lurch violently from side to side, and nearly deposited my breakfast on an innocent passer-by below!
The wheel up close... just see that rust!!!!!
Another shadow... sorry!
and looking back as we crossed the Place de Concorde, you will never know how close you came to losing me!!
and sadly that was that... Our wonderful three days was over...
