A glorious day in Paris, and.....(Pic heavy)
Hi guys! I was in Paris, France for a couple of days. Arrived on Monday morning. Weather was wet and grey. The next it all cleared up so I had to go for a walkabout. To an urban jungle area known as La Defense.
Weather was so fantastic I couldn't resist taking pictures. So sharing here. Of course had this bad boy on. Last stop at a cafe. Didn't even bother going to any ADs as I know it would be a waste of time. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Oh, forgot to add that as I was leaving Paris, passed by an AD at the airport, Terminal 1. Saw this baby and I caved.
Brought her home and after sizing it myself Haven't removed all the stickers yet though... Very happy with the purchase. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Nice! Congratulations.
Was the weather too wet and grey to fly or drive around Paris? (Asking for a friend) |

Not really. Just steady stream of light drizzle. With good luck you might get some excellent weather. Cheers!
