I walked the Promenade Plantée - a 4.5 km-long elevated park built on an abandoned 19th-century railway viaduct. The path has some enclosed sections when it passes between modern buildings and some open sections with expansive views. The park benches seemed to be used by little old ladies falling asleep in the sun and the homeless. The arcades beneath the viaduct have been transformed into arts and crafts workshops.
The Scots have gone and now Paris is filling up with the English for the match against South Africa tonight at Saint-Denis.

well aren't we just too sporty spice these days. You seem to be seeing more of Paris than any Parisian ever has. What's in store for us tomorow?

Thanks for the Paris travelogues. Am enjoying reading the daily sojourns into different areas of Paris. Reminds me of my old travelling days.
I'm reliving those memories. Keep them coming.
Love, Clarence x
