Photoblog: Paris

On a recent European trip with my flatmate, Paris was our first and last stop. We inter railed the whole trip in order to afford going to more places. We mostly strolled around cities, taking a few photos and going on the odd tour. We packed a lot in, but it wasn't a trip of learning everything possible, just a nice mix of tourism and more stairs/hills than I'd bargained for.

Tragically I don't speak French so have no idea what's going on here.



Tried to hang out with Lisa but she was a bit busy.
We laughed at the skull sign but had to remind ourselves of it closer to the time.

Smiling for the 1920's carousel, not the guy in the middle. 





These last pictures are from the Musée Des Arts Forains, a pre-book, tour only museum of old fairground objects and rides. Although the tour was only provided in French, we got to ride three different carousels (one which was powered by us peddling on bikes!) and had an English written guide to each room. Although a good selection of the audience were tourists, it felt like one of the less known attractions we saw, and was in the charming village of Bercy.
This may be my top recommendation from Paris.
