I Love Paris In The Summer Time
I love Paris in Spring, when the young and tender leaves of the trees come out, but I love Paris even more in the Summer, especially in August (soon). Of course, there are lots of tourists especially around the sights, and many coaches double-parked on the Grands Boulevards.
But there is less traffic, generally.
I had lunch near the Odeon Theater today, and took this picture that shows some familiar features: lots of bikes, still quite a few cars, a parking meter on the left (that’s a costly item!), a handful of tourists sitting on the steps, taking in the not so picturesque view of traffic, scaffolding, etc.
You can tell it’s a more relaxed time, with people standing chatting in the street. Don’t think they could do that in December…
