Today, a walk along the canal, soaking up some of the autumn sun. I love the Canal Saint Martin and especially the Basin de la Villette, home to two of my favorite little cinemas, the MK2 Quai de la Seine & Quai de la Loire.
Half of Paris was out enjoying the sun, playing pétanque, or nosing around the rather expensive, but worth a visit Puces du Design - a kind of flea market for design that happens 3 or 4 times a year.
Further up the canal on the way to La Villette an amazing lifting bridge
Subtle palest blue stripes painted on a building at the side of the canal
The wonderful bridge over the canal at La Villette
Taking in some rays at the canal side.
