Paris- a little colour in the Jardins
While wandering through Paris I did take a couple of photos I thought best kept in colour. The last is of our campervan moored in the Bois du Boulogne.

Paris - bridges and Jardin des Tuileries
After some lunch we went for a stroll along the Seine to La Chapelle with its magnificant windows. Then over Pont Neuf and the Pont de L'Archeveche, a pedestrian bridge which is festooned with the padlocks of lovers. Finally after skirting round the Louvre we found ourselves in the Tuileries gardens where we wandered in the spring sunshine. Still under the influence of Cartier-Bresson, these pictures are in monochrome. I will post a few colour pictures in the next blog.
Dunkerque harbour and evening in Suresnes
We landed at Dunkerque and drove down through northern France to our campsite in the Bois de Boulogne on the north western fringe of Paris. Our campsite was near the Pont de Suresnes which crosses the Seine to the suburb of Suresnes. We walked here in the evening and found that there was a weir on the Seine and some large machinery associated with it. We also discovered that the parisians have 'Boris' bikes. The first picture is a multiple exposure of the back of the ferry as we approached Dunkerque.
