La Trottinette




Crossing the street with caution 
as his maman coached from a few steps away.


I am amazed at how early the little Paris children learn to ride 
and how they can make the scooters fly!



zoom-zoom!

The scooter, like his boots, seems almost like just a natural extension of his leg. :-)

I remember...
when life was stress-free. Ah...

Very cute! He looks so young.

Last time I was in Paris I was amazed to see a woman over 60 yrs old ridding a scooter like this.

Thanks for the reminder, I just posted the picture. :-)

I think he is in step 1 of instructions for conquerors:
"Step 1: Prince, before crossing a street, look for crocodiles in the river that you'll find first!. Yes, Sir?". Oui, maman!

Nice looking scooter.

There are so many ways to get around Paris- a scooter is very popular though.

He's pretty small to navigate a street crossing. So glad mama was nearby.
