Promenade Plantée

Judy. On one of our last days in Paris, we got off the Metro at Bastille, walked by the Bastille Opera, and climbed the stairs to the Promenade Plantée, an elevated walkway built on an old RER (suburban train) track. From there, we had a pleasant four- or five-mile walk back to our apartment in Vincennes. The walk starts in the craziness of the city, then gradually takes you to the suburbs, then the Bois de Vincennes, where we made our way down the street to our home. It will remain one of my favorite memories.
