Running in Paris

I brought the camera along on my run this morning.  My last 2 runs have been pretty non-adventurous.  Both times I ran along the Siene, past the Louvre, to the Eiffel Tower, through Peace Park and back.  It is about a 14 km run.

This morning I decided to run to the Paris Opera House.  It was only supposed to be a 90 minute run.  Here are a few photos from my run:



Here is the Paris Opera or the Palais Garnier:




Unfortunately, I got a little disoriented on the way back and ended up next to the Bastille [see: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bastille]  It was neat, but about 2 km away from our apartment.  I then had to sprint back to the patisserie next to our apartment to buy croissants for the kid's breakfast.  Getting lost in an amazing city can be pretty fun.
