I always like these books such a "XXX in old photographs as it was" etc -the fun being to walk around and see if you can spot anything remaining that vaguely resembles what used to be there.

Hopefully the recovery will be easy…<BR/>The Pont Neuf has a particular sentimental value for me; actually, the first time I was in Paris (1969), I was hitch-hiking back from Stockholm and got a lift of a Danish driver from the Rödby Havn-Puttgarten ferry straight to Paris. When we got to Paris, I looked for a hotel and the one I found was named Henry IV at the Place Dauphine, just in the middle of Pont Neuf. For a 20 year old Portuguese under the influence of May 68 that was quite an experience… The building is still there, but I couldn’t find the hotel the last time I went through… Many years later, a friend was living in an apartment just opposite the Hotel, and from his bed there was a fabulous view to the Seine and the Samaritaine…<BR/>Have a great week Peter!<BR/>GilGMGhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06775262251208390861noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2866904825631909842.post-21258672451568061652008-01-13T21:50:00.000+01:002008-01-13T21:50:00.000+01:00Pont Neuf is definitely beautiful....your simple b...Pont Neuf is definitely beautiful....your simple but informative explanation make it more interesting.Well I guess I wouldn't want to keep saying that your pics are gr8!<BR/><BR/>Glad to know that you're fine following the surgery.<BR/><BR/>Have a gr8 week Peter.Noushy Syahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13513151573766138285noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2866904825631909842.post-84471042504977097802008-01-13T20:57:00.000+01:002008-01-13T20:57:00.000+01:00Peter, you have been awarded in my Finnish blog, p...Peter, you have been awarded in my Finnish blog, pick up your flowers from there!<BR/><BR/>http://susupetal.vuodatus.net/blog/1051562SusuPetalhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11124879339908654519noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2866904825631909842.post-41172420603404240272008-01-13T17:34:00.000+01:002008-01-13T17:34:00.000+01:00J’ai trouvé Paris au cœur de mon village, une mais...J’ai trouvé Paris au cœur de mon village, une maison voisine..

Je ne sais plus, grimper est aussi obsessionnel chez moi que la lumière. J’ai fait l’ascension du Mont Blanc.

Et puis, un problème «de cœur» m’interdit désormais l’altitude et tous efforts violents. A défaut..

Seul l'amour peut les appréhender, les saisir et faire preuve de justesse à leur endroit. »<BR/><BR/>Rainer Maria Rilke, Lettres à un jeune poète<BR/><BR/><BR/>Le sentiment amoureux à vif.<BR/>Pour aimer les Amants, il faut juste oublier la pesanteur, son propre poids, et se laisser emporter par le tourbillon âpre et enivrant de la passion d'Alex. Les images violentes de mouvement et de couleurs nocturnes, le rythme de l'archet du violoncelle. Accepter de se laisser brûler par le feu d'Alex. Risquer se noyer aussi. Alors le film explosera de lumière devant nos sens étourdis. Le réveil sera dur.
