Among Paris' many landmarks are two of its majestic old department stores, Galeries Lafayette and Printemps. For the last several weeks, Galeries Lafayette/Haussman had a promotion going on...Funarama, turning the place into a bit of a playground...the major features of which were a giant net stretched out below the famous cupola, and a walkway, both high above the bottom floor. Rebecca and Penelope did the net before we got to Paris, but I wanted to see it all, especially the famous cupola, a favorite.

| Looking up into the cupola; the whole edifice an art nouveau wonderland |

| And down onto the net (no jumping up and down) |

| A bit of perspective |

| Quite a different view of it all |
