At the Pont de Bercy along the Seine River, at the site of Paris-Plage.
Bercy, the open stadium
Fancy tanning along Paris Plage?
Glass towers of the BNF: Bibliotheque Nationale de France
A Chinese junk - a cafe bar
Tahitian theme for Paris Plage in 2006
Still too early in the morning for any actions...
A floating swimming pool - very original idea
At the Passerelle Simone de Beauvoir
Intriguing bridge, as the author which gives it its namesake...
Hedges trained inside metal cages outside the BNF
Facade of the BNF
An office a the quai (no 13)
Part of the tourisme office of Rive gauche (Left banks)
Notre Dame of Paris from the River Seine
Another pix of the famed cathedral
A church in the Quartier Montparnasse, somewhere near Raspail (time had gotten the better of my memory)
A residential building in the same neighbourhood
A newstand opposite the Montparnasse Tower - the tallest object in Paris
Typical Parisian street (outside the Montparnasse station)
A fancifully designed building a block away from the Montparnasse Station. Reminds me of Gaudi. Notice the words on the dome - Felix Potin (Pot Belly Felix if you translate literally but in fact, he is the predecessor of bulk retailing. This building now houses a big ZARA boutique on its ground and mezzanine floor)
