de Paris Jardin Marco in the distance
The Medici Fountain (1630)
designed by Tomasso Francini
Back on the circle!
On Rue Soufflot street!
neat looking street
it's not sloping down right?
Where are we now?
Le Pantheon!
Pantheon meaning "Every god" in greek
It's situtated on a vantage point
Overlooking all streets around it
Xmas Decorations by it's facade
hohoho!
it's originally built as a church
dedicated to St. Genevieve
The nearby Saint-Etienne-du-mont
Now it's a secular mausoleum containing the remains of distinguished French citizens
The richly detailed Corinthian order
An early example of neoclassicism
A chruch in your hands!
Back in Cluny for supper!
Our restaurant of choice
the food and service's rather good
The place's pretty decked out too
decked out as in every ceiling space
and wall space
are all covered with deco
A sight to behold at least
very interesting indeed
Back at the hotel
Back the Gare du nord station
Shops in the station
The station's main entrance
Outside the lobby area
The Nord is a high speed train station
serving local and outbound trains
It's a TGV haven!
Our ride back to London
Choo choo!
All board!
Dining at 200kmph 2000ft under the channel!
Can't get enough of the space age doors
Back in London St Pancras!
The Eurostar Alstom trains
The first in Britain!
As if we can't get enough of sculptures in Paris already!
That's all for Paris, for now!
Ah! Sunny California!
A perfect day to be thrown into Jail
