Here are some pictures from a very short 2 day visit to Paris. We stayed on the outskirts of town and really enjoyed walking down the market street, Levis which was near our hotel. We also went to what is supposed to be the world's largest flea market. We had a lot of fun and picked up a few paintings along the way.
