And here is the second part of our adventures in Paris.
We walked a lot everywhere: from Notre Dame to the Champs Elysées, from the Louvre to Place Vendôme, along the Jardin des Tuileries and all the way to La Défense, the business district. Phew!

Ah, Paris! (2/2)
Wow that first shot is quite something! I love your jeans, Zhu 🙂
You always take amazing photos 🙂 Where’s the best place to stay in Paris? I checked on Expedia and it says Arc de Triumph district is not too bad.
Do you know how long does it takes from Paris to Versailles by public transit?
Aah ! you have lovely photos of Paris, one of my favourite cities. Arc de triomphe is looking very beautiful. How many times you have climbed it ? Me only once. 🙁
Girl, are you taking all of 2009 as a holoday? Jealously yours,BB.
Indeed, it seems that you are on a holiday streak. I’m so turning green here… 😛
I hope you realize what an impossibly high standard you set for the rest of us bloggers. What has propelled the man in the Eiffel Tower photo? He is way up there.
I see you visited my blog and caught up on my little world. Always a pleasure to find a comment from you. I just put up some cool squirrel pictures.
Wow – I didn’t realize you were also lucky enough to hit Paris too! Great pics!
i *love* the photo of you on the champes elysees!
the thing i liked about being on top of the arc de triomphe was watching the traffic in the round-about. it looks so crazy. i’m glad i didn’t have to drive there!
What a cool jump shot!!!
Salut Zhu,
More enjoyable pics of the City of lights. That’s great; I’m taking the trip “vicariously” through the photos since I’m still in recovery.
You had some long walks but the weather was up to it !! Much better than parking one’s behind in a bus and just watching things pass by. But, more tiring ( good fatigue, though).

( p.s.je vois le toubib mercredi … c’est la première fois depuis l’opération).
@Agnes – Thank you! Jeans are Esprit’s, bought them in a sale last summer 😉
@Bluefish – Versailles is quite far, I’d say about an hour. It’s really in the suburb. As for places to stay, I’m not sure… But I do know a cheap hotel on Rue de Rivoli, nearby the Louvre. Email for details 😉
@Cuckoo – I climbed it only once actually, last year!
@beaverboosh – No, we are back for good in Canada in a couple of days.
@Linguist-in-Waiting – We are coming back now!
@Bill Miller – I was glad to visit your blog, it’s good to catch up with North American life! The kids were skating in front of the Eiffel Tower, they were impressive.
@expatraveler – Just for a few days — after all it’s only two hours from Nantes!
@Seraphine – I wouldn’t like to drive around there… althought maybe once on the Champs just for fun!
@Baoru – The kids were impressive, for sure!
@barbara – Bonne chance avec le médecin, j’espère que tout se remet bien! Je croise les doigts pour toi… 🙂
Hi Zhu,
Beautiful city, just beautiful! When I saw the Pantheon I was like “every European city must have one” because we also have a “Panteão” in Lisboa.
As always, you look great, girl! Blue becomes you!! 😀
Cheers
I was there 40 years ago – thanks for taking me down the memory lane!
Loved both the parts Zhu! you made me pretty nostalgic.
We were on quite a shoe string as we travelled around europe with Paris as our base. So sight seeing in Paris used to be on foot. I remember walking many a times from Notredam to Eiffel, along Sienne. The walk was so beautigul
Thanks for the wonderful posts!
Wow, you were in Paris again! Lovely pictures, which only make me wish to reach there sooner than later.
