[Leica] IMG: Nathan's PAW 11: Three days in France

[Peter Dzwig]

Nathan,

like them very much.

Number one reminded me of a similar thing at Blackfriar's station in 
London.

If you are ever there go to the back of the main train hall. There is a 
wall put up in the 1870s (I think) by the "London CHatham and Dover 
Railway" of the destinations that you could reach from there including: 
Paris, Warsaw, Berlin, Biarritz and St. Petersburg.

This is one side of it:

These days it's a small commuter line from Kent and parts of Sussex

PS I have no idea why I don't have a picture of the other side.

So most of the Paris photos are from inside the OECD (or the immediate environs), or taken while walking to the metro station from my hotel. Besides the great view of the Eiffel Tower from the Trocadéro, there are some picturesque garbage piles, a testament to the French propensity to strike, and some dogs having fun in a park. It is all here:
