Spring

Spring has fully arrived in Texas and Easter just arrived so there is a lot to see and photograph but most of these were taken in Paris.

Spring at the Eiffel Tower last year.
Seen in a shop window in Pais.

These are unusual rabbits.

It’s lots of fun looking at chocolate creations at Easter.
Love seeing tulips come up.
Seen on an île de Ré on the Atlantic coast of France.
Spring-like street art.

Paris Photos

Some more photos from years past. I have over 20,000 of them so I can keep going for quite a while.

Statue along side Bir-Hakeim bridge.
A charming sculpture above a door.
False flowers above a cafe which I’m starting to see a lot of.
A Croque Monsieur sandwich cut up as an aperitif.
A colorful place for lunch.

Past

For many reasons I haven’t been out to take photos around Dallas so here are some photos around Paris from various years.

Spring at Palais Royal. I see it looks like that now from Instagram photos.
It’s rare to see the inverted pyramid in the lobby of the Louvre without any people. I was there before the Louvre was opened.
Is there any soup better than French Onion? I see from the plate in the photo that this was at the Grand Colbert. I think I was there for my birthday.
A well known restaurant in Montmartre that is decades old and many artists of note, such as Van Gogh, hung out here.
I don’t remember where I took this but I love the light.

Here and There

Here are some photos that are literally here-Texas- and there-Paris.

Lunch at a Thai place in Dallas with family.
Could it be Spring without baseball? This is my grandson, Benjamin, at bat.
Even if it isn’t offically Spring, seeing these daffodils for sell is a sign it’s coming. I took this photo in Paris a couple of years ago.
Notre Dame in the Spring before the fire. The trees still bloom unbeleivably after the heat of the fire.
