The annual "Sunday Parkways Southwest" event was held about a block south of my home. It didn't rain (much), so a nice day for a walk or bike ride.

After the Olympics, Paris's parks are very well-kept and beautiful. But they've started continuing with construction throughout the city, and traffic is a real problem. The mayor wants to reduce the number of cars; I'm not sure how, but right now it takes twice as long to get to places. It was a work/business trip, so I didn't have time to take many photos. I hope to return soon with more time because it's always a culturally important city.
