I added some photos of the rue de Rivoli area, the Notre Dame Christmas tree and also Ile Saint Louis -- plus a few other things.

Your videos are magical. Thank you for making them available to all of us. DH's coworker and his family are flying to Paris on Christmas Day for their first visit. I've sent them your videos. I hope the displays will still be up the week after Christmas.

You've inspired me to start thinking of a winter holiday to Paris...

Wonderful, kerouac! What was the music plyaing during the last couple of minutes in the first link, please.

You might find it strange, but the music was from the soundtrack of the Japanese film "Hana-Bi."

It was lovely and, yes, I never would have thought of a Japanese movie hearing it. Thanks, k.

Thanks so much for sharing.

kerouac, I found a 42+ minute version on Youtube and played while I read a couple of TRs--wonderful music. Did it remind you a little of the "Last of the Mohican" movie music?

Came to this thread belatedly by virtue of a link in another post, but wow, loved all the windows. Ty. :-)
