Parc de Monceau - zoom-zoom



Parc de Monceau


This large, family-friendly park has an elongated track 
for scooters, skates, bikes, and unicycles.  
Yes, I saw one.  


The pace is fast and furious.  
Parents linger along the outside rails 
enjoying a warm autumn Sunday afternoon.

    Un parc chic pour des enfants bien habillés.

    One sees a lot of "adults" using those scooters also.

    So pleased activities like this are encouraged. Much better than sitting inside in front of a computer. I suspect these children will sleep well tonight.

    Too cute! Do you suppose the petit garçon in the red hoodie complained to his mother, "But, Maman, no one else is wearing a helmet!" On the other hand, maybe he loves it. :~}
