I wonder how long Parisian children have sailed their boats at the gardens in Paris.

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.

Probably as long as there have been children possessing boats in Paris and also gardens with sufficient access to waters?
But I suppose you meant how long that has been?
Very Parisien!
This one has probably been doing it for four or five years.
I had such an enjoyable time there with my then 8-yr-old grandson.
Sweet. (Actually, I wonder how many have had to be fished out.)
I really need to spend more time on the net, blogs that is. This evokes childhood and just about every French film of a certain era. Adorable
