Seen on the Seine

Just a few images to share today from my last week here in Paris. I live between the park, (the Bois de Boulogne) & the Seine river, which makes for great scenery. Crossing a bridge over the Seine, the city of Puteaux is a short (5 minute) walk away. The Arc de Triumphe is close as well--just 2 Metro stops away.
Breakfast is all about chocolate in France!

The cars are tiny.

Dogs welcome almost everywhere--even in the bank.

Our tiny kitchen. Someone did come remove the door for us. LOL

My favorite market--this is the only aisle.  Great fruits though!

Our apartment building is the white building on the right.  The Seine River separates Neuilly-Sur-Seine from Puteaux.

Girls in the Marais shopping, near the Louvre. You can see the Eiffel Tower in the background.

Who Knew?  You get a donut with ice cream on top when you order the steak & fries!! Meal, drink, & dessert for about $17.00.

Each of the Metro stops has a different personality.  This is Concorde--but not sure yet of the significance of the letters & numbers.  Place de la Concorde is where the public executions by guillotine took place during the French Revolution.

As you walk across the bridge to Puteaux, here's your view:

  2. So happy you "asked to be my friend" on facebook, or I never would've seen this! I love it and am really going to enjoy reading about all the fun you're having in Paris. We went last year and loved it!!!!
