So tonight, the evening before our departure, we finally did it – we finally got to the Grande Roue, the gigantic ferris wheel in the Place de la Concorde.
Unlike the last time we happened by on New Year’s Day when
there were mobs of people snaking around in lines, we walked right up to the
ticket booth, and waited perhaps 5 minutes to clamber into our car. I have barely enough time to get out the camera.
And it was grand!
The Eiffel Tower
The L'Arc de Triomphe at the far end of the Champs Elysee
The Petit Palais in the foreground, the Grand Palais beyond
The Louvre
The Musee d'Orsay
and our home turf, Sacre Coeur.
And back to earth… a lovely end to a lovely sejour in
Paris.
