Some Favourite Memories of Paris 2012

These are Dr Anne's highlights of Paris 2012


Pavillon De La Reine is one of the Small Hotels of the World.  It is in a courtyard off the Place De Vosges the home of galleries and pavement cafes.




The pavement cafes are the central to Paris.  
Who would sit on the pavement in Portsoy and eat supper @ 2100?


At every opportunity Dr Anne looked through a gate, a fence, over a dyke.  She loved what she saw.


Foucault's pendulum was a highlight in the Pantheon.
There was also an exhibition of the writings of Jean Jacque Rousseau which proved an interesting interlude.


Musee D'Orsay was free on the first Sunday of the month.  
The Degas Exhibition was amazing.  He will no longer be remembered for dancers and horse racing.  This exhibition was Degas' portrayal of nudity. 


Coffee and cake in the Musee D' Orsay.


The Pompidou Centre was a must for a restorative champagne cocktail.




The local metro station was the Bastille.
