Paris in a Day (4): L'Open Tour...

L'Académie Française seems to be fighting a losing battle with the the purity of the French language if such things as "le mp3 player" and "L'Open Tour" are in general use.

But who gives a stuff? €25 for all the landmarks, commentary in English, Edith Piaf singing and free headphones, you can't really complain about a little anglicisation of the language. Especially when you're only here for the day.

Here are the highlights...


Le Bus et le shop (Printemps is basically Debenhams, only French)


Les Invalides, L'Assemblée Nationale et Le Centre Pompidou...

Didn't have time to stop at any of these. They were probably all shut anyway.


Le flag, les policemen roller-skatés et Le Grand Health et Safety Issue...
