Place de la Victoire

Yesterday Fiona and I met up at Victoire for a questionnaire with a chap. I was quite taken with this square just behind Victoire; the sunshine, the shadows, the riot police van. On Place de la Victoire itself they park the riot police van behind the arch not to spoil the view too much. (I have never seen any trouble at Place de la Victoire, obviously the vans work!)



Later we walked to the student centre down the tramline and suddenly we both stopped, transfixed, rooted to the spot outside this boulangerie.




After spending too long looking in the window we entered to find that one of the proprietors is partly Scots. As usual, the part with the kilt. What are they like?

Mind you, what am I like, taking a photo of the bakers! The guy seemed quite pleased with our admiration, though.
