Tom's Pictures Oct 30 - Nov 3

Really really good ice cream!  Le Bac a Glaces.

We'll probably have a million pictures of the Eiffel Tower from this trip.  Here's one from our Segway tour day.


Also from the Segway tour.  The Place Concorde obelisk in the foreground and the Eiffel Tower (again!) behind it.  


This is the Tuilleries Gardens looking towards the Louvre Museum.  Beyond the freestanding arch (with the chariot on top) you can see the pyramid entry to the Louvre.  This was also taken during the Segway tour, which was an amazing weather day!  

The Church of Sacre Coeur at night. It's a different style than the other cathedrals, build out of a set of round spaces.

For my niece...  This is an outdoor restaurant in the Montmartre area (just behind Sacre Coeur).  End of October and weather was nice enough to eat dinner outside.  Afterwards we watched a portrait artist.

This is from the Musee D'Orsay.  In a former life it was a train station and has now been converted to a museum.  They kept the basic structure which is very dramatic.  Includes this window through the clock tower looking towards Sacre Coeur on the hill in the distance.

A clearer picture of Sacre Coeur.
