Robjame's Paris Photos
I, too, have been procrastinating in posting our Paris photos from May 2005. For anyone interested...

robjame: Thanks for posting your photos. I am going to be at the Hotel Monge for the first time next week, so now I know what it looks like! Do you recommend any nearby restaurants or markets? It looks like you visited a lot of beautiful gardens. Are any of those nearby?

Hi Y&R,
I hope you like Hotel Monge as much as we did. Say "bonjour" to Julie(last photo). We will be there again in a month. The markets in the pictures are at Monge and Mouffetard. Both Luxembourg garden and Gardin des Plantes are within walking distance and wonderful places for people watching.
Email me and I will send you my restaurant reports for some of our favorites in the neighborhood.

What a nice break from washing my kitchen floor! How good to see all the familiar places all leafed out and so green. I've not been to Paris yet during a green season. It looks even better than I imagined!

Thanks Robert..excellent photo memories of a most memorable place. I'm anxious to try out my digital after having used my regular Nikkon on many past visits to Paris. Your results are excellent...good eye for meaningful photos.
Thanks again..Happy travels...we'll be in Paris May 5-9 following a barge trip in Alsace and a few weeks in Provence.

Robjame, thanks for these. I find it amazing to look at someone else's photo and say "I was there! I stood in that same spot exactly!" Wonderful memories. (I like the little flag in your lapel, too.)

I think we must have similar sensibilities. We'll be staying at Hotel Monge when we go this July, so I was pleased to see your photos.
So how come you have so many more posts in such a short time?!

Hi Ira
It is a Sony Cyber Shot 5.1 with a 3X Optical zoom. I don't pretend to understand it but it is supposed to have a smart zoom that minimizes distortion when it moves past 3X and into digital zoom.

Nice pictures! I'm leaving on Monday, my first trip to Paris. I'm staying at the Hotel Residence Monge so the last few pics were appreciated. The photos help with the instensifying anticipation, thanks
