Some Neighbourhood Photographs, Tuesday, 24 November

Another lovely day, 16 degrees, no wind and clear skies so while Ginnie did her homework I took off with my camera to do a little bit of a neighbourhood photo shoot.



This is the entrance to the building which contains the flat we rent. At a later date I'll do an "internal" photo shoot so you can see what the accommodation is like.


Almost directly across the street from us is a Chinese Restaurant, Chez Yang. We ate there last year and were disappointed with it but it must suit the tastes of some; there's one gentleman who eats there just about every evening.


Underneath our building is Cafe Lola. It is quite posh but very noisy on the weekends, often until 2.00am. The solution to that problem is earplugs.


Around the corner on rue Francoeur are a number of shops including a clothing shop


A Lebanese restaurant


A bookbindery


and, of course, one of our favourites, the Boulangerie.


At the top of rue Francoeur, where it meets rue Caulaincourt is our favourite watering hole Cafe Francoeur.

More about or neighbourhood at a later date.
