Parc de Sceaux

Finally, Claire & I busted out our bicycles for the first time since moving to Paris. Our generous landlords are letting us use their touring bikes for the year--pretty nice bicycles, although a little hard on the ass after several hours of use. We took the Coulee Verte, a great bike trail which begins at the train station at Montparnasse (very close to our apartment) and goes south out of Paris through a number of suburbs. There are also several cool pieces of art along the way. We went from Paris to Parc de Sceaux, a huge park which was formerly the grounds of a castle but converted into a public area for walking, biking, sports, art exhibits, etc. Some pictures from today's outing:
