Les petits gilets jaunes

Pas de problème, these gilets jaunes mean no harm, they are skipping off on a field trip!

Parisian Field Trip

This gaggle of happy students was marching along down through Tuileries. Some carried these PVD poles and others a net and bags of soccer balls. I suspect a game of soccer was going to take place in the garden. I should have stuck around for that!

Field Trip, Paris Style

As I was wandering around in front of the Hôtel de Ville, there were several kindergarten classes filing in and out. I wonder what was inside that would appeal to five year olds?

Boys will be boys, no matter where they live. These school boys were having a fine time feeding the pigeons their leftover lunch chips in the area between the Palais de Tokyo and the Musée d'Art Moderne de la Ville Paris. Although I've not visited the Palais de Tokyo, I highly recommend the Musée d'Art Moderne!

Field Trip, Paris Style

While poking around the shops at Village St. Paul, I spotted this schoolboy at the end of this corridor. He and his friends were giggling and playing, so I walked through to see what they were up to. I found this gaggle of students with their teacher, just leaving the Academie de Magie, balloon animals and all! Shown here previously.

Field Trip - Paris Style

I can hardly imagine what it must be like to be a kid in Paris. Around here a class field trip may be an outing to the potato chip factory or the local zoo. But in Paris it might be a picnic on the Champs de Mars with la Tour Eiffel as a nice backdrop or a visit to the amazing la Cité de l'Architecture et du Patrimoine!
