in France, Ntrips, Paris, Trips
Another year going to Paris, Air France has had much better deals in business seats for miles, so I've been going with them again. Nice 1-2-1 layout (especially during covid):

The previous year, because of covid and no vaccines, I literally didn't go out at all, or see anything. This year I was triply vaccinated, so I went out to enjoy the city again, plenty of pictures:





nice views from top of Printemps



newer building, not sure what happened there

Printemps was great to see as always:








yum but totally overpriced
Great to meet some of my friends for lunch while I wsa there:

Arc de triomphe:

I went to arche de la défense to check out the view and the Xmas market:











The top of the arch has a small expo each time, this time photos:


I then went to the Xmas market (remembering that it closes at 18:00 on the last day, but 20:00 on previous days). So many yummy things:











so yum

I was weak and got a seared foie gras sandwich

those bottles were beautiful

look at the patterns blown inside the glass!
Random pictures while walking around in Paris:

the flower market is always nice



that weird building again, I'm not sold



cartoons showing the rebuild


we shall rebuild!





it rained many days, but not every day




After doing the Xmas market at arche de la défense, I did the one by jardin des tuileries:

yeah, I didn't have of those, fixed :)









Oh yeah, I also went shopping for the essentials. The entire row of cookies fell from the shelf into my cart :)


that's why I shop for chocolate in france :)
Back another day for some night pictures:


While I was in Paris, I also saw (click on the links):
Paris Cinematheque, Musee Melies

Chateau de Vaux le Vicomte

Monnaie de Paris (French Mint)

And thankfully I managed to avoid catching covid for long enough to fly home, it was a close one:

'Adieu les cons' is a fun movie :)
