Thanks Ted for the comments. I love these little slices of life. In Paris 
people live on the streets. Here you could wander the streets for hours and 
not see a soul!1

I hope this sees you off for your month of wandering in Paris. I'd love to 
see the results.

Cheers

Alastair and Helen

Hi Alistair and Helen,

Sorry folks I just posted a note about the wonderful life moment of people
sitting at the table enjoying a beautiful Paris moment in the scaffolding
without realizing you shot it.

 

So a great big "good on you!" for this one! Now I've had a look at all of
Helen's and your pictures from Paris, all I want to do is book a flight for
"PARIS IN THE SPRING!" :-) :-) 2009! Just hang out for about a month doing
daily walk abouts enjoying the place, people, food, atmosphere and? Quite
obviously the "WINE!" ;-) 

 

It truly is a wonderful city. I've never run into people scowling about
having their pictures taken, as it seems they accept it's part of living in
Paris. :-)

North America? Hell these days you could get punched out before 10 a.m in
the morning just for putting the camera to your eye. Or cops, including the
rent-a-cops, arresting you as a terrorist for taking a happy snap!

Paris? Man you just have to love the place and the people!

Cheers,

ted
