Yes, the ring do light up at night, although I have to admit I haven't seen it yet. There is a small article in Wikipedia about it, although it's in French: http://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anneaux_de_Buren @shionge - I like this district because of that! @kyh - The Isle of Nantes was set up after I left the city, so it's all new and fun to me! @kyh - My high school name was Jules Verne and I must say I ODed on his books, compulsory reading :lol: @Sidney - For a short while; yeah :lol: @Seraphine - It was the industrial side of the city but I must admit they did a good job with it. The rest of the city is very bourgeoise :-) @zunnur - Kids do love it, although I find the 6 euro ride a bit expensive... @Tulsa Gentleman — Thanks for your interest!
