A few pictures from Paris

I will probably get some up on Shutterfly or something, because I can’t even begin to pick out a few that can represent the whole, but I’ll try for my weblog. Don’t forget to read my other posts down below!

DrivingArriving, and driving through Paris in our bus.

ArcThe Arc d’Triumph, as viewed from a stoplight!

Arc againMyself and the Arc. You can at least get an idea of how grand it is in scale.

FlowersSome beautiful flowers I happened upon in a park across the Seine from the Eiffel Tower.

Eiffel TowerMe, and some tower.

TulipsSuch beautiful tulips everywhere in the city. My favorite flower…how wonderful.

D'OrsayThe Musee d’Orsay, as viewed from along the Seine.

Sacre CoeurThe Sacre Coeur, an amazingly beautiful church, with one of the most famous views of Paris from the top. This is also close to Montmartre, the artistic section of Paris where the artists hang out, and the people sit at the little cafe

The needA young girl outside of the Sacre Coeur. I hope that I wasn’t invading her privacy or disrespecting her by taking a picture of her while she was asking for money, but I thought it was an interesting picture.

Tower at nightThe beautiful Eiffel Tower at night. It was so romantic, except I was alone! Ahh! It’s almost blasphemic. Anyway, it was a beautiful evening.

LoversParisian lovers, enjoying the warm spring evening, and dusk under the Eiffel Tower.

PathI took a little stroll while I was waiting for it to reach 10:00, so that the tower would begin to light up.

CarouselAfter the Tower lit up for about 8 spectacular minutes, I walked across the street to get a picture of the carousel.

CemetaryI also visited the very famous cemetary in Paris, full of artists, and painters, and composers.

Moulin RougeMOULIN ROUGE! Need I say more…If you haven’t seen the movie with Ewan McGregor singing about how his gift is his song, you won’t understand.

Notre DameOne of my favorite pictures from inside the Notre Dame. Unbelievably beautiful. They were also holding mass as I was walking around. It was pretty beautiful.

MetroThe metro entrance in Montmartre.

Men 3 amazing French men (there were a lot of those) discussing life in the Tuileries Garden near the Louvre.

PainterI bought a beautiful painting from this fabulous painter. It’s something I’ve always wanted to do if I made it to Paris. He gave it to me for almost half of what he wanted, what a great way to end the trip!
