1998 London/Paris vacation [2]
|
Since we were staying in Montmarte we did a lot of walking up the hill and when we went at sundown, the street was crowded with locals buying their dinner.
This is just a typical grocer with his colorful wares.

This is just another street in Montmarte (Rue Lepic) which is a view looking
down the hill ... it's a little rainy (Most of our stay in Paris was such) and
it's towards the end of the day.

We passed the Bastille station several times and I really
liked the view from the train of the river outside. I stopped on the
platform one day and tried to capture it... uhmmm I don't like it but here
it is anyways. I probably should have used more depth of field and played
with it a bit as it's a classic backlit photo and maybe I will adjust it!

Here's a semi-classic photo of US taken at the tip of Ile Saint Louis on the
quai by none other than Maryse. As usual in our Paris stay, it was rainy
and cloudy ... This is the Seine looking up towards the Ile De La Cité. No I
can't explain my posture!

This is the final photo for this page and it isn't even Paris. It's
actually Rye England (where we took a day trip). The significance is one
of the things I did a bit on our trip (to the consternation of Kerry) was
to take a flop on any dry bench I found! Of course I wasn't just resting
my sore feet (miserable shoes) but taking tiny observational analyses to
enhance my comprehension of the foreign shores I was travelling.
