19 Sep 2021 Paris by the Louvre



We strolled down by the Louvre and got our first peek of the Eiffel Tower.  Some of the streets get shut down on Sundays and the locals will walk or bike on these streets.  We saw a band of 200 bicyclists, young and old, pedal by us while we were at the Louvre Pyramid.  We kept strolling along in the crisp autumn air upper 60's to lower 70's, until the creeping jet lag forced us to return to the apartment.  Luckily for us, there were beds for all of here and we made use of them for a brief circadian rhythm re-adjustment. 



A cool Metro Station


Very delicate exterior metal work


No end of statues


Here we are at the Louvre entrance


There it is!


Just the start!


For 10 minutes bikes just came by


This Taxi thought it could navigate through all the bikes and a guy stopped him and stood in front of the taxi so he had to stop.


Look at this orange "bike"


A real big fixer upper!
