Last Day Of Our Vacation In Paris, France Part #2

Here is part #2 of our last day on vacation in Paris, France. After going on a boat ride on the Seine River, as shown in Part #1,

 It was raining out as we were walking our way around the Les Halles district. We decided to take a break our from being in the rain

Below is an altered image...negative image with some color  
                            

  




We were walking around when we came upon this unusual window "decorations" 

 I could not believe my eyes when I saw real dead rats hanging in theis stores window..the sign says that they were captured in the Les Halles district back in 1925




While walking on one of the main streets in the Les Halles district we came across this interesting door along with some street art. I used my photo editing program to alter the image a little bit.






Below is a department store

Below are altered images of a night club sign


  
Here are some housing "pods" that were being put together outside of the Church of Saint Eaustache



Below is  Église Saint-Eustache




  


The sculpted piece of art shown below is called L'ecoute, which means Listening






Here are some interior photos of  Saint Eaustache church




































On the way home after another long day, we stopped at a little grocery store that we frequented often during our stay in Paris. It had rained all day. Of course it slowed down as our night was winding down. Shown below is the wet cobblestone streets of Paris.
 When we got back to our apartment we got all of our belongings ready for our return trip home. We also cleaned up the apartment we were staying in. One last night in our feather bed...like sleeping on a cloud. The next morning we woke up and met our driver outside of the apartment and after packing up his van with our suitcases we made our way through some horrendous traffic on our way to the airport. And it seems that as soon as our trip to Paris had started it ended just as quickly. Veronica and I had a great time in Paris, France and there were plenty of fond memories that we also brought back home with us. We plan on returning to Paris one of these days. We still have a date with each other for a picnic that didn't happen due to the weather. So in closing....the below photos depict how we felt about our 2014 Paris, France vacation coming to an end..I think these photos tell the whole story....
