I remember those steps well only to discover an elevator when we made it to the top.
Wonderful framing of the subject !
I'd march up those stairs to the beat of their drum and very much enjoy the view all the while.
The city claims that three quarters of the métro stations have escalators. From experience, I can tell that's not true.
Love the young drummers but who is the guy in the sun glasses with the champagne glass? And, yes, V there is an elevator -- it would have been wonderful to take it -- had it been working!
M,
I'm thinking Johnny Hallyday! :)
Starman,
I'm with you on that one.
Wong,
Thank you
Shell,
I marched up but not briskly. :)
Rob,
Lordy, I missed it the first few times myself.
And I've been whining about the broken escalator at the Times Square exit ... I thought those steps I climb every morning were steep ...
Hey, is the the time we all walked up those stairs? :-)
Sometimes it's definitely worth the effort expended—looks like this was one of those times! I think the fellow with the Champagne is Johnny too. And I should know, right? :~}
This is so inspiring for a gloomy day like today.
Actually, the current marchers are happy as well. many of them are high schoolers who don't have to go to school that day! Now, if we could just get them little drums and cute uniforms...
I love it Virginia!! I've never seen one of the métro murals!! What spectacular colours.
Une bonne image.
Daryl,
I know you're fit enough to zip right up!
Maya,
Oui!
Paul,
That' is hilarious. I"m surprised someone hasn't thought of that.
Les Rêves
Oh you must see this Metro stop. It's the best.
Jean,
Always happy to brighten your day!
these steps are probably the primary reason there is less obesity in Paris, even with all that rich food!!!
We were there last month. The sign just to the right says there are 90 (or maybe 99) steps. It felt like twice that many. Having done it once, I need never do it again.
