I opened my piggy bank tonight; it’s something I do yearly.

I get a piggy bank at the start of the year, and break it open at the end of the year.

I couldn’t/didn’t save much this year, but it’s enough for a few Christmas gifts.

Maybe next year I’ll save enough for Christmas in Paris.

Speaking of Paris, the city is trying to get a .paris domain extension approved by ICANN.

You can go here to sign a petition, if you’re so inclined.

Here are ten random photos of Paris I love today.

Magasins Réunis Etoile – Now an FNAC store

Old yellow La Poste boxes

A dramatic window.

Signs to places you want to go.

Fountain at Place de la Concorde

Buses that stop here to take you places.

The huge museum that’s the Louvre.

A footbridge named for the first president of Senegal; Léopold Sédar Senghor

The bride wore a kimono.

See Paris from a boat, on the Seine.
