2009...Biker-mom Biker Mom Keeps Walking
I wandered around to the Hotel de Ville to the Petit
Nicolas exposition.

find out more about quintessentially French little Nicolas and his band of
friends, so much like my husband Henri's childhood, and that of our
children.
Notice that the velib station is completely FULL
so if you rent one you'd be stuck with it all day, at 1 euro every half
hour. But pray to get a velib in my neighborhood...you can see below
there is
just one left! I'd say something's wrong and thank goodness I have
my own bike.

I took rue des Archives home to
pass by one of my favorite buildings--you can see it below, with the
marvelous towers. It's a museum now.
As you can see, this butcher shop
is closed. Most fresh produce is still closed on Mondays in France,
but otherwise, few stores close for lunch as they once did.
