Paris Books, October Photos – 2nd
Bouquinistes have the best views, apparently since the late 1700s. I understand that is when the term was first used for these second hand book sellers along the Seine River in Paris.

For Travel Tuesday, I thought I’d go (I wish I could go but I’m talking in terms of a picture today) to one of the most well known booksellers in Paris. Most well known; perhaps due to its prominent location, being on Rue de Rivoli. Also, however, due to it being acknowledged as the oldest English bookstore on the continent. Established in the early 1800s and amazingly at this location since 1856, it certainly offers an appealing Parisian façade.

The books caught my eye but I was expecting a little more out of Shakespeare and Company. Maybe ‘The Shakespeare Book’ in the window confused me.

The Bouquiniste have books and art. And I’ve heard the forever famous, It Is Said, once said, the Seine is “the only river in the world that runs between two bookshelves”.

There is so much going on through this doorway that I noticed after taking the picture … way back then. I guess, originally, the ladder distracted me because I love library ladders.

Ralph is a traveler. He has his own plane … or so he thought.
Astral traveler Ralph didn’t really think about whether the astral plane was his own until the girl from Mayfair Towers approached him with her mystery. He told me his story. Ralph explained that he thought this would be a simple investigation, perhaps impressing the lovely girl from Mayfair Towers, by using his secret mystic gift.
An experienced and knowledgeable astral adversary, however, transformed this simple investigation. Unlike this adversary, Chong, Ralph was essentially a novice in other dimensions. Now, beyond the investigation, Ralph was involved in a paranormal struggle …
