Tonight we were looking at web-cams of various sights around Paris......

www.paris-live.com/

At the moment the Tower is a vibrant blue with a circle of stars, does anyone know what this represents and for how long it will stay like this?

Our guess is that it is something to do with Europe or a summit meeting, possibly something to do with The Tour De France or even Bastille Day?

We certainly hope it stays that way for a few more days, we are huge fans of the tower and would to see it in as many guises as possible.

Never be afraid to try something new. Remember, it took one amateur to build the Ark and a bunch of professionals to build the Titanic.

holger: I am not switching so if the rest of you leave, it will be farewell. Makes no sense to create a new site instead of just posting here. have enough work related list servs and blogs to read and respond to. Certainly don't need ano Feb 24, 2015 16:47:51 GMT -5

holger: It really does seem as if the site is moribund. Too bad and as I no longer have emails for anyone on my computer just want to wish you all well. I do check periodically but mostly now go to slow travel and the France forum there. Apr 22, 2015 7:54:32 GMT -5
