Bikes For Rent It's called Velib... and it's Paris' genius rent-a-bike program, brainchild of the mayor. For a few coins, you hop on a bike, ride it to wherever you need to be - and park that puppy in the undoubtedly nearby docking station. Miss the last subway train at 1am? Rent a bike! Late night of clubbing, no taxis handy? Use the Velib! Don't want to have your own bike ripped off or worry about where to park it? Voila! A lovely rental bike is just waiting to roll to your destination. How much does revenue does it pull in? I just read an article from 2007 that claimed $28 million for that year. I love smart ideas. ©Karen Hutton - Creative Commons (CC BY-NC 3.0)
Ladies Who Stroll I use the word 'stroll' lightly. Because these particular ladies in the Marais neighborhood of Paris were covering some major groundage. I wondered what they were talking about, so immersed were they. Work? Clothes? Boyfriend? Girlfriend? Working out? Problems of the world? I wondered if they were native Pariesiennes, or if they moved here from another land. And if they were happy there. I admired their fashion sense, as I did most of the women I saw in Paris. Then they swooped by and were gone. ©Karen Hutton - Creative Commons (CC BY-NC 3.0)
