Automne

It was a picture perfect autumn day today and so warm, 17 degrees! To celebrate I decided to walk into Paris along La Coulée Verte (the green corridor), after some convincing Rachael decided to come too. It's about 9km into Paris (literally just inside Paris it stops!). I've only ever gone as far as Fountenay-aux-Rose, which is still about 7km from Paris. It is such a nice idea to have a car free, vegetated walkway all the way into Paris, although admittedly the closer you got to Paris the less 'green'it became. In the last stretch it was basically just walking next to a hedge! With the leaves changing colour it was so pretty.
There were so many different colours - Orange!
Yellow!
Purple!
A mix of colours
I walk past these trees everyday on the way to school, they seem to have changed colour overnight - amazing!
A stand of fairy apples.
We packed a picnic and stopped halfway to sit in the sun and eat. Yes, no jumper and its the last day of October! We were very very lucky!

We were planning on trying to get all the way to Tour Montparnasse but we got sidetracked by a market...so much fun! Got a pair of shoes for 5Euro. So guess where all your christmas presents are coming from!
