PARIS

Hard working Parisian surveyors at work.  This is for my husband and Dennis, his fellow surveyor and friend.





Above:   This is the obelisk which was the model for the Washington Monument.   This is much smaller and has a golden pyramid on top and egyptian writing down the sides of it.
Monuments everywhere



This building is just down the block from our BandB.  The lush green vegetation is very eye catching.
Below is our BandB.  We are located on the 1st floor up from the ground floor. 

 The upper is the main entrance to the Petite Palace facing the Grand Palace near the end of the Champs Elysees.   They are very large buildings.  The Grand Palace has a glass roof that is lit up at night and quite beautiful.


This pond is between our BandB and the Eiffel Tower.   Sunset was just catching the trees in the back.
