Paris Adventures Day 3 (14/8/15) - Arc de Triomphe, Posh Shopping and Place de la Concorde

Hiya!

So, day three already eh?

Day three took me to the Arc de Triomphe, where I climbed up a spiral staircase inside and was greeted with very awesome views at the top.

I then ventured down the famous Champs-Elysees (not sure how to get the accents when typing...), and explored the amazing expensiveness of the Galeries Lafayette Haussmann, the posh 'loaded people' store where shops were cordoned off and security guards were in every little corner.

And a little walk in the rain later (why was it raining in Paris in summer, why?!) I came to the Place de la Concorde. I took photos of (and 'on') the fountains and of the Luxor Obelisk.

But then it started raining more heavily, so I had to leave :(

Why you such a downer, rain?




I spy with my little eye, something 'sacred'...

La Defense






Pretty flowers :)

The pretty roof of the Galeries Lafayette Haussmann







I went to town editing this one - didn't mean to at first, but I liked the colourful result so decided to stick with editing the poop out of it. But had to put it at the end because it doesn't fit in with the others...


I love you
