Pont Saint-Michel

Not much to recommend today's weather either. Cloudy and dank. I did play a couple of sets of tennis at Fort Snelling and spent some time watching the European Space Agency land a scientific package on a comet so far away from earth that light takes 28 minutes to get there from here. It was a a massive achievement.

But I didn't take any new photos, so I'm falling back on my cache of bridge photos. I like this one. I took it from the top of Notre Dame and the bridge across the Seine is Pont Saint-Michel. Eiffel Tower for scale. It was a beautiful day in July, 2011.

Pont Saint-Michel? Some foreshadowing, apparently. Lovely photo.

Lovely. In all the times I have been to Paris, I still have never climbed all the way to the top of Notre Dame. Perhaps I'll have to try it next time.

I think we should visit that place so I can see the beautiful view for myself. After all, it is named for my ancestors, I'm sure.

I may have climbed all the way to the top but if so, it was in 1976, so I would like to do it again (with GZ and maybe Wireless, EMSA, NCW and TT, and Santini?)
