This is the Samaritaine department store. The shot was from the mid point on Pont Neuf. Therefore I was not on the bridge at all. The New Bridge is also the oldest bridge in Paris.
Back to snoozing. I never saw the famous view from the restaurant in the top of this building. I kept putting it off. Now (since 2005) the store is out of business and may reopen in a couple of years as an office/apartment building. The presence of a restaurant atop it is up in the air. (Did I just make a bad pun?)
This visit is about to wind up. If there is anyone out there who absolutely must have something from Paris, ya best let me know immediately. No artworks from the Louvre or anything I can't get on the plane with.
I won't be returning to Paris soon. I know this city better than I know Columbus. I've made some goods friends here. This trip wasn't as enjoyable as I've lost two friends since preparing it. It's just been a bummer. That is also why I haven't been posting very much. I didn't take many photos either.
Courage, courage.
