More Sunday Snaps

Here are some more photos from my lovely walk on a sunny Sunday around the Jardins de Luxembourg: enjoy!


The Petit Luxembourg Palace, which of course begs the question: if this is only the petite palace, how much bigger is the main house?




A stylish moped on Quai d’Orléans on the Ile de St Louis.









The spire of St Germain des Prés, peeking out from behind the ivy-covered parapets.






Can’t be too careful out there in the wilds - evidently the weather could change at any time!









The local wildlife obviously keeps a low profile on a busy day in the park and who could blame them really, as this unfortunate fellow's last encounter with humans was clearly not a very happy one. (Gotta hand it to those Parisians though, they're are so damned stylish - a casual twist of a scarf here, a beret at a jaunty angle there...)
