Springtime in Paris

Bonjour Peeps! Yes.....first day of spring....and thinking AGAIN about my favorite spot for viewing all the blooms in Paris.....  and the statues.....




 

Below: from the flower market near Notre Dame.....




All the colors of Paris look more vibrant....

Check out the shooting beam from the flame of the French Statue of Liberty.....



Below: blooms near the Eiffel Tower....park across the river....







Below: a view of the Seine River....



Below: St. Chappell.....they display the CROWN of THORNS worn by Jesus on Good Friday..........This church was built for that purpose....but now I think the display is in Notre Dame......


There is nothing like Paris in the Spring!  Forget San Francisco....I left my heart in Paris....

Au Revoir

  1. Oh Lynda, how beautiful! I would have swooned at the flower market. The blooms are stunning! And how strange it must be to see the Statue of Liberty somewhere else besides Ellis Island. I know it was a gift from France, but I always forget they have a smaller version of their own. Is there really a beam coming out of the flame? Or is that just a trick of the light? I'm a little behind in my blog reading and just now catching up. Is this a trip you went on recently? Or some pictures from a previous trip? Either way, I'm jealous. I've not yet been to Paris. Maybe some day! Thanks for sharing your beautiful pictures with us!
