52) Winging Back to Dreamtime


Post conference in the Garden at the Musee de Rodin - I am full of good ideas! I have a day to trapse around Paris in the drizzle and see some of the sights.



They have dreaming of Down Under even in Paris!












A rather scary old guy!
















Michel Cluizel - according to the NYT Le Tour du Chocolate, this is one of best chocolate shops in Paris.


















A pretty cool projected image (moving) onto a big semi-permanent tourist ferris wheel in the center of the city.
















Installation art shows about town. These words were crawling all over the building













Two strips of foil, spinning and illuminated - the lite changed and this changed colors like a giant soap bubble!























A blue Eiffel Tower in the fog..











Me and Mona - imperturbable (but just not very close)

ICIS social event at a musee of carnival rides, old games, and very classic human powered rides
*that thing was FAST!)

Bottom video
A century old 'pin-ball' game - spin the top and hope it rings the bell!
