Speaking of Christmas-y, here's a picture of a small part of the massive Printemps Department store(s).

Printemps

Au Printemps covers 5 blocks with overhead tunnels running between them.   It's really a bit much.

What collection of pictures of Paris would be complete without a few of the Eiffel Tower?


Printemps

This picture was taken from about halfway up the Eiffel Tower toward the Arc de Triomphe accross the river.   The bright lighted area in the river is a tour boat.
