Almost election day

You are probably as election-weary as I am, and I only bring it up because of this scene with its even-numbered partitions and amended poster.

Slice of the Sky

Go in the garden, walk to the monument, and look up. The sky will look back at you.

I can’t overstate how much fun it was to just wander around, more or less like a normal person, away from crowds. And make pictures. Lots and lots of pictures.

Underbelly

Our tour group got to go below the tower, to look at the system of hydraulic lifts that operate the elevators. It was interesting even though I was busy taking pictures and missed a lot of the explanation.

It was also sad: I thought how fun it would be to tell my dad – a civil engineer – about it when I got home. It’s coming up on two years since he passed away, so I guess I didn’t get to Paris soon enough.
