View from a Bateau Mouche

Last Saturday we also took a spin on one of "les bateaux mouches", the mega-touristy boats which go up and down the Seine and point out all the major landmarks of Paris in 6 different languages on a recorded soundtrack. It was a bit of a hot day, and we even brought an umbrella for Sophie to avoid the sun. Some pics below:

Funny faces on the Pont (Bridge) Neuf:

Bronze statue on the Pont Alexandre III

Hanging vines on the banks of the River Seine

The ultimate symbol of Franco-American relations: a small replica of the Statue of Library (a gift from France to the U.S.) with the Eiffel Tower in the background.
