Santa (Le Père Noël) is on his way...


Here is picture I took especially for Christmas eve. Santa and his vintage car were taking a break in front of a restaurant in the 17th arrondissement after his shopping spree. Maybe he had good luck finding what he needed at La Fnac (in the background), a large French chain of stores specializing in records, books, home video equipment... Maybe some of these goodies will be coming your way. Nevertheless, may I be the first to wish you and yours a very happy holiday.

  2. Thank you Eric!

    You've already given all of us all over the world a great present by updating your blog every day. Couldn't think of a more appropriate picture for Xmas. Good shot, one more time, thank you so much! I love it!!!

    Best wishes to you, your family, and all our fellow bloggers.

    (By the way, euh, un Pere Noel sur une voiture de luxe devant une chaine comme la FNAC, ce ne serait pas le comble du capitalisme par hasard? ;-)

  5. Eric, I'd like to thank you for this wonderful little oasis that I stop at each day, partaking of the fantastic little slices of your city. Yesterday's picture of the Tower is now the background for my home and work computers - simply beautiful.

    I want to wish you and all of your readers a very happy Christmas. May God bring you health, safety, and happiness during this Noel season and through 2006!

  8. Anonymous: pourquoi un pere noel communiste? Est-ce parce qu'il a les mains vides? ;-)

It has been such a pleasure visiting your blog (almost) every day and reading your words and daydreaming over your fabulous photos.
