Café on Rue de l'Échelle from the bus - note matching flowers and bicycles (only in Paris . . . ) by Beausoleil
We rode buses a lot on our last trip and I had fun taking photos out of bus windows. You get a mini-tour of Paris if you go far enough because they wander all over town. This was fun because the fake flowers matched the very useful bicycles beneath them.

Passing the Sennelier Art Store on the bus - a typical Paris morning by Beausoleil
I love Sennelier paints so don't miss a chance to visit their store when in Paris. One of our bus routes took us directly past the store and I think I took a picture nearly every time. I was caught by the bicycle on this trip. So many people ride bikes to work.
A fun ride through Passy on the bus home by Beausoleil
Passy is one of many lovely areas of Paris that are fun to explore after you've seen all the major tourist sites. There are many shops, gardens and people to see.

Formerly La Gare Restaurant, now Casa Luisa by Beausoleil
If you remember Pedro from Virtual Tourist, he loved La Gare Restaurant and often recommended it. We were disappointed on this trip to see it has changed hands and is now Casa Luisa. We didn't eat there so I can't comment on the food. It is still a lovely use of a former train station.

Maussane - Two good ways to get through town - bicycle or horse by Beausoleil
Maussane is one of the two top regions in France for olive oil. It is a lovely town and nearby you can visit the ancient Roman ruins of Glanum, Les Baux de Provence and La Petite Provence du Paradou, the santon museum.
Riders getting ready for an event at Auvers-sur-Oise by Beausoleil
There was a bicycle sporting event the day we attempted to visit the Van Gogh Center in Auvers-sur-Oise. It made driving a challenge.

Fontaine du Châtelet at Place du Châtelet in Paris by Beausoleil
This lovely fountain is a short walk from the Châtelet Metro stop and an easy walk to the Conciergerie and Notre Dame across the Seine.
Walking to Invalides with a great view of the Eiffel Tower by Beausoleil
The Eiffel Tower is tall and can be seen from many places in Paris but the area around Invalides is particularly good for distant views.

Our boulangerie in Paris by Beausoleil
Saines Saveurs Patisserie-Boulangerie at Square Saint-Medard where we shopped for our daily bread. The ladies who work there are very kind, helpful and patient. We were always at a loss on Thursdays when they were closed.

Buskers by the St. Germain Metro Station by Beausoleil
There are buskers all over Paris, some good and some not so good. These fellows were terrific and great fun.

You can have your organic produce delivered from the market by bicycle in Paris. We saw lots of bicycle deliveries although most weren't as elaborate as this one. More often we saw someone with a large black box fastened to his bicycle zipping through the streets delivering all sorts of things, but mostly food of some sort. This doesn't seem to add to the market experience if you don't actually have to go to the market but I suppose it is progress of some sort.

La Brasserie de l’Isle Saint-Louis by Beausoleil
This is kind of a Paris institution. It's been here for ages and has been run by the same family since 1953. They have a view of Notre Dame Cathedral so it is always full of tourists, but otherwise it is pure Paris. They have foods from different parts of France, but we particularly like their Alsatian dishes. Whatever you want, they will probably have it and serve it cheerfully.
Au Bourguignon du Marais Restaurant on rue François Miron by Beausoleil
We were looking for lunch and this wasn't it but I loved the bicycles parked across the street in juxtaposition with the busy café. As the name states, they specialize in dishes and wines from Burgundy.

Place Dauphine on the Île de la Cité by Beausoleil
We love the Place Dauphine because it is one of the quiet places in Paris. This bicycle has been placed as a sign and seems very appropriate to the city.

Place de la Bastille in Paris by Beausoleil
Lost in Paris this is the first place we recognized. We were found! Hooray. We quickly found the Peripherique we had been avoiding and were on our way to Montrichard. We really hadn't planned to see Paris on this trip.
