Street scenes

What are your favorite physical activities or exercises?

This is similar to a recent prompt. Of the big three (walking, swimming, biking), walking is the easiest—no helmet or bathing suit required.

It’s really fun to walk around a new city, or a neighborhood you’ve never been to before in your own city. I had no problem closing my Apple Watch rings in Paris. (Yes, more Paris, sorry. I don’t travel that much, so this trip was a big deal.) Here are some street scenes from our walks around Paris.

Fruit vendor on Rue Cler
Le Marais – the 4th arrondissement – showing its pride 🌈
The Big Wheel on Place de la Concorde with Christmas Market in foreground
Street art in the Marais
View of Pont Alexandre III and the Grand Palais from Les Invalides
Rue Montorgueil at night
Louis XIV statue at Versailles: you can build yourself the grandest palace in Europe, but it won’t stop a seagull from sitting on your head!
The famous “Centaur” by the sculptor César (an ode to Picasso) with traffic cone embellishment 😂
First glimpse of the dome of Les Invalides from the Army Museum courtyard
The grand gate at the Palais de Justice on the Île de la Cité (the historic island in the River Seine)
On the bridge to the Île de la Cité (the Seine looking greenish that day)
On Rue Cler – the cutest little Paris street
