Photo of the Week – My Dear Paris

A dozen years or so ago, I got to live in Paris.  I did not get to choose where I lived during those six months as my employer took care of that.  The place was nothing special EXCEPT for this one thing… The building had a rooftop terrace with a great view.  I assume it is enough to just show it to you and not describe it…  Voilà!

    Nice shot Raul. Not often you get two landmarks within one great shot.

    Wowee! Sometimes a great view can make up for a so-so apartment. I can just imagine how wonderful it woudl be to wake up everyday to this scene. Fantastic!

      While it was not the view from my actual apartment itself, I went up to the terrace of the building just about every night to see this view. Usually with a bottle of wine in hand!

        Wine in hand? Even better! (is there a time in France when you *don’t* have a bottle of wine in your hand?)

          Heather, it is not allowed to be 100% sober in France. I adapted well 🙂
