Monday was a perfect day for a photo expedition - warm weather and a crystal blue sky. We decided to check out a more modern side of Paris - the area known as La Défense.
The building above is called the Grande Arche. It lies in a continuous line from the Louvre, west through the Tuileries, the Champs Elysées, and the Arc de Triomphe.

Looking east - you can see the (tiny) Arc de Triomphe in the very center in the distance.
The area has some interesting modern architecture. I call this the flying saucer building:
And some interesting sculpture. . .
