:snap: Mine, too! Approximately halfway between the Anvers and Barbes Rochechouart metro stations and about 4 blocks from the funiculaire

Thanks for those pics, GD!! Loved them!

Ah Paris.... I'm envious.

Heh. I was more amused that I *did* know. Every so often I just "know" something in French and I don't know why. "Tour" doesn't end in "e" so I was trying to talk myself out of it being feminine, but my instinct was right.

And then I had to look it up - "tour" as, well, a tour is masculine - le Tour de France. "Tour" as tower is feminine. Weird!

Now you have a bit of snooty French knowledge suitable for driving people crazy at cocktail parties. :p

Seriously, though the photos were great! I'd totally forgotten about those flat-topped boats on the Seine. Were there a gob of pigeons at Notre Dame when you were there?

That one I know. Bateaux mouches. Fly boats.

No, the season (late October) and our early jump on the day meant low pigeon population, as well as low tourist population.
