BMWs of paris - part deux

fellow parisian BMW enthusiasts,

paris is larger than i originally thought, and this required me to return and examine a few other arondissiments (translation: 'hoods) and assess their beemerness. for your inspection i present the results of my efforts...

this is one of my favorite things to see. lots of cute little scooters and other bikes, and then a big burly BMW.

being able to just park on the sidewalk makes having a bike in a big city a slam dunk.

notice that in the background you can see the name of the brasserie which proves that french is not a difficult language to learn. you just put "le" in front of english words, and whammo, you're speaking french!

parked outside one of the many gardens. when i visit paris and walk through these big parks with all the flowers, right in the city, i marvel at the brains it took to say, "hey, let's leave a few places unpaved, even though we can't charge the flowers rent."

That's because the company is French, kinda like me, in my tendencies.

It's a good thing the French don't read English laguage forums, or they'd find you and hang you. ;)

I'm hoping my son names his garage band, "The Froid" which, [I]en francais[/I] is pronounced "tay fwah" which will get you ice tea.

your ability to pick out those areas is impressive as heck...

i might have to award you ian's dinner in atlanta! :D

Isn't the photo captioned "one of the many gardens", the Tuileries, just by the Louvre?
