Paris by night anyone?

About once a month, usually on a Saturday night, we go driving. We throw the kids in the car after dinner and we go to Paris to see the lights of the city. The kids usually sleep and we cruise the entire town in an hour or so, digesting with our eyes. What a feast!

I almost always forget my camera but this time I remembered. I also did a few short movies. In the first one you can hear Seb brag matter of factly at the end as only a Frenchman can, "Paris is one of the most beautiful towns in the world, no?" (he didn't know I was filming hee-hee) and in the second video you can drive around the étoile rondpoint under the Arc de Triomphe with us while listening to the French radio. (The videos are after the pictures btw).

Enjoy!
