Another view of the Seine, this time from the walkway along the Seine. The bridge is the Pont Neuf, which is one of about ten bridges connecting the Left and Right banks. In summer, this walkway is covered in sand and converted into a beach, but when we were there it was about 40 degrees too cold for that. You should also take the boat tour along the Seine, which is the most touristy thing I think I've ever said. But it does give you a good perspective on the city that you wouldn't see from walking. One amazing thing, though, is at night, the boats are equipped with high powered spotlights, which they proceed to shine into all the buildings lining the river, most of which are residential. Any rudeness people attribute to the Parisians should be forgiven after what they're subjected to every night by the tour boats. By the way, the whole rude French thing is a myth, they are among the most polite people we've ever come across.
