What she found and saw in Paris, Part 1

The carousel near the Eiffel Tower. I hated the Eiffel Tower surroundings,

there were so many tourists there who came to Paris just to get their picture 

taken in front of it. But the carousel was magical! I didn't ride on it, though, as I'm

a little old for that...

This is one of my favorite photographs. Taken on a lovely street in Quartier Latin, full of little food shops, bakeries and color. I wish I could transfer all the smells to you...  

Inside the Opera. I call it '' The Magic Mirror''

Some chairs in Napoleon's apartments...

The Picasso Museum. He's one of my least favorite artists and so I found the building much more fascinating than his works! Those colored windows were beautiful and it had that peculiar mirror outside, that made you look like a figure who step out of his paintings. Just genius!...

A vegetarian restaurant in Monmarte. There where only three tables inside...

This very famous fountain next to Centre Pompidou. Does anyone knows how it is called because I always forget the name?

A beautiful dress in the Opera again. I took so many pictures there.

Canal St. Martin. The place where Amelie threw stones to relax herself and probably the most interesting and lively place in Paris nowadays! You can find lots of young parisians there wearing quirky outfits, drinking cocktails in plastic glasses and listening to awesome street bands who play there for free

Abandoned marionettes in front of Centre Pompidou. 

Someone really cruel left them alone

Flowers, lots of flowers.

...and me 

eating a pastry from heaven's place on earth, also known as Laduree!

I was on a kind of a macaron diet in Paris. I still am actually as I brought

plenty of them home...

First post about Paris, more to be expected within the next weeks! I'm back home now but my  mind still wanders around the city of light...

I hope you had a good time too...

Au revoir!
