Time...


to pop over to Cartier for a new watch?  Oh,  Place Vendôme gives "upscale shopping" a whole new meaning.

Hee! I'd happily watch this scenery.

I'd rather pop into the Hotel Ritz (also on the place Vendome and where Lady Di did) and have a drink in the Hemingway Bar.

I always forget how large that area is... Those guys are diminuitive next to the monument!

Tell Paul that I'll join him!

Definitely need to spend more "time" there! Our venture through Place Vendome was much to brief!

I tried on a half million dollar necklace at that Cartier store. I didn't ask to try it on, they insisted. Oh, how I wish I had a photo of that.

Great shot, V. And I'm with you as well, Paul (although high tea is pretty nice there too)!

Honestly, I don't remember the plinth being so large!

Beautifully photographed street photography !

Starman -- some of us stay at the Esmeralda! (to save our euros so we can have drinks—or high tea—at the Ritz, of course) :~}

A beautful composition, I like the shadowless light and the green of the column.
