Passages de Paris

After Rachel left for her return flight to the US, we did a long walk in the 2nd, taking in some of the city's famous passages, or covered shopping arcades, most dating to the earlier 19th century. Below is a sampling.
In the Palais Royale




















Thus















In the Passage Vivienne




















Thus; one of the better toy stores was
around the corner





















Reminders of home...















OK, some work is needed















The Bourse















Passage Jourffroy




















Best toy store, so far, at least for princess things, doll house
things, miniatures, in Passage Jouffroy, Pain d'Epices,

And now in the Passage Panorama, across the
street, mostly cafes and restaurants
