Entre Les Murs

Around the Bois

I walked Janet to work this morning, then went for a longer than usual run around the Bois de Boulogne. I may have to start carrying a camera, because there's always something to capture. Yesterday it was a child on a pony wearing an oversize riding helmet, right out of a Thelwell cartoon. Today it was a peloton passing below a windmill by the river.

On the final leg, I went the long way around Roland Garros, where they're setting up for the French Open. It doesn't officially commence until Sunday, but already, and even on a grey morning just after breakfast, there were people gathered wherever you can watch the practise courts from outside the fence.

We'll be out of town for a couple of weeks, so entrelesmurs will be again taking a hiatus.
