What a cool shot!

Excellent -- almost sad -- photo, Islandman. Tables and chairs are made for folks to rest and enjoy.

Old French "Citroen" cars are becoming a collectors item. Not sure if they are ugly pretty or pretty ugly !! This in the UK:

After a one-month security hiatus, Paris resumes its first-Sunday-of-the-month car ban on the Champs-Elysées.

Paris' famed Champs-Elysees went car-free for its entire 2km length today with thousands of strollers out. From here on, it'll happen once a month.

Paris's traditional outdoor New Year's Eve celebration on the Champs-Elysees will happen this year, but will be a much more low-key affair than in the past. In the aftermath of last month's terror attacks, there had been thoughts it would be canceled. It will be a very different event, with no fireworks (for fear they might spark panic) and security measures to control crowds and keep too large a crowd from forming around the Arc de Triomphe.

I'm not sure if we were too early or too late, but seeing all these empty chairs and tables lined up outside a cafe along the Champs Elysees in Paris was a most unusual sight I thought.

One of the events in Paris this year commemorating the start of World War I is a series of large photographs, mounted along the Champs Elysees from the Grand Palais to Rond Point.

This veteran Citroen truck, probably early 1950s, sits daily on a small triangle off the Champs Elysees, near the Grand Palais, selling organic fruit ices.
