Paris with Nadine (2)

Our only full day in Paris but we made the most of it, walking miles and visiting some new (to us) sites. As you can see the weather was cool and grey, a bit like me really!

La Rue de l'Abbaye?
Yes, Hallowe'en fever has hit France too!
Papa & Nadine by the zany fountains at Beaubourg...
......where the 5m high statue of Zinedine Zidane infamously head-butting Marco Materazzi is a big attraction
A spruced up Conciergerie in the background 
We visited Le Jardin des Plantes for the first time...
...where we made acquaintances with Nénette, a wonderful Orangutan playing up to a crowd of onlookers. 
Next, Le Jardin de Luxembourg...
...and a couple of frightening cats at St Sulpice.
Le Pont des Cadenas, where lovers lock their padlock before tossing the key into the Seine!
