Radio Lady invites you to view Paris, France... (PHOTOS)
Please go to this link --

http://community.webshots.com/album/559356675CfMmJm

That will reveal thumbnail pictures. There are 331 photos of this beautiful city where we visited in May 2007.

The best way to see them is in a slide show. In the upper right hand corner you'll see a box -- click SLIDESHOW.

You can choose the number of seconds to retain each shot. Put your cursor on the bottom of the frame to stop, start, skip, etc.

You do NOT have to sign in or be a member of Webshots to view our album.

Enjoy!

Radio Lady and her husband, the Digital Devil!

3. You're welcome, WildHorses. I do appreciate your comments.
Hubby is working on Brussels, Belgium photos all day today (Saturday).

Re: Mr. Brooks. I haven't seen it and don't know if I will. We missed a bunch of mid-May to early June previews. I've been ill for several days since I returned from Europe, so will have to get on board with the newest movies when I feel better.

2. Great shots! Reminds me of when we were there in 1999.
I'd go back TODAY. Best trip of our lives. I LOVE PARIS (the city, not the heiress)!

4. It is a wonderful city. My husband loved it and so did I. The only scrape we had
was one afternoon when we were feeding the pigeons. A female gendarme came over to us and told us, in English, that it was against the law to feed them in the city.

I guess they are a big scourge in Paris. Ah, well.

7. No kidding! That ring road around the Arc is very busy! I wouldn't be surprised if there were
a lot of fatal accidents there.

Jaywalking in the capital cities of Europe is just nuts! Also, in the U.K. where we are not familiar with the traffic patterns.

Did they give you a ticket or just a warning?

9. Just a warning.
Although I think I heard the officer mutter something under his breath about "...stupid Americans ..."

Also, there was a total solar eclipse that day, so at noon it was almost completely dark in Paris.

10. That's b/c if you ever see someone trying to cross that street
It is generally assumed to be a suicide attempt, no joke.

11. Well, it was a little crazy ...
But if you can make it (i.e., survive!) as a pedestrian in NYC, Paris is a piece of cake!

For the record, we didn't get more than a couple of steps into it before the officer whistled us back.

:-)
