I didn't realize I was walking around on ruptured tendons in my foot -- I just knew it hurt and I had to stop periodically. We were walking from Institut Arabe to Sennelier and I needed a break and we went there. SO lovely and peaceful, quite quiet on an early October day and the leaves were turning yellow.

It was meant for the artistocracy to mingle just ena bit with ordinary Parisians to show off, to flirt, to court on those lovely curved benches. Here's an interview with the author about the early history of the bridge:<br /><br />https://www.npr.org/2014/02/28/283525705/when-war-torn-rubble-met-royal-imagination-became-paris<br /><br />Eye of the Beholderhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10654425950137628959noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26546687.post-87255288761031013452020-09-15T12:53:04.736-04:002020-09-15T12:53:04.736-04:00The Pont Neuf was the first bridge I interacted wi...The Pont Neuf was the first bridge I interacted with and the only one I knew about on my first trips, so it is still special to me.
