France July 2010 | Day 4 | Paris, Louvre, Jardin des Tuileries, Champs-Élysées, Arc de Triomphe, Eiffel Tower, Notre dame cathedral
said goodbye to blois…took a train to paris
as it was tuesday the Louvre was closed but that did not stop the tourists
makes me wonder how bad it would be during the other days
lot of people wanting stuff or selling stuff
tying hard to take a frame that has not been taken before
dont think i could ever get myself to do that…jump off a plane i can
this is how it looks underneath
pretty cool
left the louvre and reached Jardin des Tuileries…where i saw a guided tour on segways….nice
and people in suits…keep in mind it was 35 degrees that day
a view of the garden
leaving Jardin des Tuileries…heading to Champs-Élysées
took a frame with the 21 and…
switched to the 50
going back to some old school frames
like these
did you know that you cannot…
walk the Champs-Élysées bare chested…
the famous Arc de Triomphe
very crowded like most of touristy paris
the eternal flame
time to head to the…
…Eiffel Tower…no…thats a dustbin
i took this frame
guillaume took this one while i was holding the camera…it turned out surprisingly well
getting out…into the blistering heat…more men in suits…cazy
this picture pretty much describes what i feel about the Eiffel Tower…its nice as a feat of engineering…but is spoilt by all the hagglers trying to sell shit
eating an icecream in the shade of a tree while people make their way to the Eiffel Tower
some frames
below the tower
a final frame of the thingy
as we had some time left…we decided to check…Notre dame cathedral
only to find this gynormous queue of people waiting to get inside…
and thats it…took a final metro…then a ICE to frankfurt…
as of this trip…Blois was much much better than Paris…hopefully i will be back in Paris to spend some more time…and see all the non touristy stuff.
