Square du Temple, across from the city hall in the 3eme, is a charming little park that is obviously a place for the younger crowd to meet and greet!

Paris je t'aime
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". In 2008 I returned and I looked at the city with more of a photographer's 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, but I have been most fortunate to return to the city j'adore 15 times since. Each time I leave, I wipe a tear and start planning my list for the next trip. 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.

Kid on the bike is eager to get down to have fun!
Now that's the way to travel in Paris!
So many prams and babies, love it Virginia.
If it was me pedaling, I'd surely catch my cardigan in the chains ..
It has something of a fifties shot about it to me...excluding the style of buggy, bike, etc..I think it's the lady...anyway, great shot Virginia.
Wishing you a very happy new year.

What will it take for the French to start wearing helmets?!
How courageous to ride a bike in Paris!!
Charming picture! It reminds me of when I was seven, and we had moved to La Rochelle. My mother and I would walk through the park every day, and these are among my fondest memories of growing up.
What a wonderful park this is, full of history, and a gathering place for the young, and the not-so-young. Remember the older gentlement we photographed on a bench?
Bises,

Your bike ride to the park snap brings a smile to my face! And look how classy she is for a bike rider!
