Paris through the river Seine

My final blog entry on Paris is on the Seine. It is almost primal for human being to begin building a village / city along a river. River serves as the source of transport as well as livelihood. Seine River in this case is like the main vein of Paris city. Esthetically, Seine is being described by Mistinguett (a French music hall star) as a "pretty blonde with laughing eyes". In essence, the Seine is very much a part of Paris as much as Eiffel Tower. A trip to Paris is not complete without having a dance with this pretty blonde. This pretty blonde shows you everything beautiful, everything romantic and everything worthy of Paris.

Come, cruise away with me in this romantic city. If you have the La vie en Rose track, play it.
