Paris scenes

aparisgeneral

Which capital has more generals – Paris or London? I suspect Paris would win that contest easily, but perhaps I just tend to notice them more there.

aparistower

This tower in central Paris has been under scaffolding for as long as I can remember. But to judge from the part now peaking out of the top, it is going to be mighty spectacular when finally unveiled.

aparismanga

On the road leading up to the Pantheon, what is billed as “Europe’s first manga cafe”. I’m not the right person to review it, but it certainly looked like it has a distinctive atmosphere.

aparisturkey

An interesting window display in the Marais – the turkey was in inflatable form, and the pressure within surging up and down. And the “old master” on the wall has a turkey painted beside it, and yes that is a lampshade on the turkey’s head. I’m sure it is supposed to mean something…

(All taken with my cameraphone, so they won’t bear too close an inspection, sorry.)
