When it was time to leave and we took the train to the airport, we began to see some of the rest of the city. We already knew we'd be back but that trip told us how much more there was to explore.Petrea Burchardhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13043950465171821852noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11471590.post-39455765133684532832012-04-05T15:49:03.055+02:002012-04-05T15:49:03.055+02:00Eric,

Instead of getting off and getting back on in the right direction (too easy) we rode to the end of the line and then got back on. We got to see a lot of Paris we never otherwise would have. It was one of those unplanned adventures that ended up being a lot of fun.monnicahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02810903118624970368noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11471590.post-52663262149340090382012-04-04T18:49:33.378+02:002012-04-04T18:49:33.378+02:00I like this!

I agree the lines and composition are really nice.<br /><br />Major infrastructure is always controversial: and always has been, as your historical story shows. We all love the convenience of riding the Metro, but build it over there, Not In My Back Yard (NIMBY). Uh, oh, gag the planner before he gets started.
