Spring Cleaning, Walking the Ligne #8, and Finally Talking about Homelessness in Paris

[sek8586]

First of all, today was nice. I took advantage of the nice weather to clean my apartment and open the window very very wide so it didn't stink of cleaning spray. Now it is all neat and sparkly.

I also had time to caption Line 8, which I walked yesterday (partly with a friend of mine). The weather was gorgeous, and even though the line is the frowny

I especially liked the photos of the grouchy Parisian woman crossing the street(are there a lot of grumpy French people?) and the window with curtains. Your discussion of homelessness is poignant, especially in the context of all these elaborate buildings and monuments and all the people out shopping.

1. I think the statue looks like empty bowls waiting to be washed.

2. I wish you were living in the Woman Palace.

Really? You still have to tell me where you were!!

And let me know if you find any statistics... it was really hard for me to find anything official on the Paris end of things, so I'm really curious if anything turns up.

Dude! boulevard du Temple! That's awesome. It'snot the building with the giant curtain mural on it (in the photo I took), is it? And did you ever go to the circus? I'm always tempted but then it seems expensive.
