I wanna go, I wanna go ... oops ... hold on a minute ... I don't think I can skate any more. This looks like such fun. Wonderful photo and I really like it in B&W.
Hey, Quick Draw, I love the way you got them both and the ET between them! This looks like so much fun, but I won't be packing my skates when I go. :~}
I am a former elementary school teacher, a full-time photographer, part-time painter, lover of all things French ( whose français is slowly improving), obsessive Paris traveler, enthusiastic art museum volunteer, grateful community volunteer, and grandmother to 5 delightful grandchildren.
I fell in love with Paris in March 2007. It was as the French say, le coup de foudre : love at first sight. As a result of that trip, my photography took another direction. Since that time I have pursued a career of sorts in photography and dreamed of returning to the City of Light. November 2008 found me strolling the streets of Paris once again. My first visit I was so overwhelmed with the incredible beauty of the city, I photographed it as a "tourist". My 2008 trip I looked at Paris with a different eye. I wanted to capture the unique, the small details, and oh yes - the people! This blog was started as a photo diary of that trip. I was thrilled to return to Paris and the French countryside in June and July of 2009, and blogged daily while there. I've returned to the city I love in January and June- 2010 , January 2011 and January 2012! Each time I visit, it feels more and more like home, and I discover new and interesting things with each trip. I cherish the time with my Paris friends as well as the friends that always join me there. Paris may well be a moveable feast, but I think it's best savored in person! Someone told me that once you have been to Paris, you will leave a piece of your heart. I left mine right there, but I brought home some wonderful memories. It is my pleasure to share them with you.

Wonderful!
Nice photo and title. Papa looks a little more unstable than his fille.
Yes Joe you're right. Parents have to keep up with their children :-)
Great sports ground.

V, were you and Mary on skates, too? I can just see you two chasing this pair down, Mary with her map and you with the camera! Great shot, my dear!

BIG sigh
How wonderful that papa and jeune fille were out skating together...a moment to be treasured by them both!!!
One of these days I'm going to get brave enough to try those in-line skates.
Starman,
I'd rethink that idea unless you want to see Paris from a wheelchair! HA
And on that note, I won't be donning any skates myself!

That's the cutest thing! Or perhaps charming is the word, considering it's Paris and the famous tower starts to subtly appear...
God bless you!

lovely shot!
Tolles Bild!!!
liebe Grüße
