Adventures in Paris

This is a wide variety of photos from our day in Paris. First, the Caprese Salad from Tribeca on

the Rue Cler. This salad is served in a sealed mason jar with layers of tomato, mozzarella cheese and basil pesto. I thought of my friend Joe Wood when I ordered this salad. It is a classic served in an unconventional manner. The second photo is of Monica and I standing at the top of the Arc de Triomphe. I think that the view from the top really gives you the best look at how the city of Paris is layed out like spokes from a wheel with the Arc as the center. Beautiful views of the old tree lined avenues. We walked from the Louvre through the Tuileries down the Champs Elysees to the Arc. We stopped at a cafe under the trees in the Tuileries for a salad and a glass of wine. The friendly waiter snapped the photo of us enjoying our salad. The last picture is of me standing in front of one of Monet's paintings in the Orangerie.
