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...

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.

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?
