Shakespeare and Company Bookstore, opened by George Whitman in 1951, continues the legacy of Sylvia Beach’s early 20th century Paris bookstore, inviting writers to visit. The bookstore hosts a yearly festival of writers; we took the opportunity to hear Alistair Horne, author of The Seven Ages of Paris speak.
A boat ride on the Seine that night pulled the wonders of the city,
bathed in evocative lighting,
into a continuous photo opportunity. Our departure site, the Eiffel Tower, was blinking as we took off on our journey.
