| Opera, anyone? |
Yesterday I ended my vacation - suitably glamorously! - with a day in Paris, just noodling around with a friend. We managed to put in at least four hours of walking, a bit of shopping, lunch and various refreshment stops, and a quick visit to the club. It was a glorious autumn day, and I couldn't have asked for a nicer city-break!
The weather was good for taking pictures - at long last! - so I took quite a few. Enjoy!

| Sometime watered their seeds, and dripped down on me!!!! |

| We walked all the way from Cite to the Gare du Nord! |

| I had an entire first class carriage to myself - no idea why or how, but it was great! |
