RODEO DRIVE


I drove down (& up) Rodeo Drive in Beverly Hills last weekend.
My God!! Interesting shops... Interesting cars!!!


Rodeo Drive is one of the most exclusive shopping streets in the world. THE place to max out your Credit Card!! Plenty of top-class Italian designer boutiques, the best in French fashion and world-class jewellers. Other than spending a fortune…. There’s very little to do here other than walk (or drive) down one side of the street and up the other.

MG

The mere mention of MG is enough to make the eyes of motoring enthusiasts mist over. To fans of cars and driving, the famous octagonal badge represents the definitive British sports car.

Have some water !


In Paris, there are 65 public water fountains made by the Founderies d'Art du Val d'Orne at the order of Sir Richard Wallace.

He Charles-August Labourg to design these fountains to increase the amenities of strolling through the city of Paris. In 1872 Sir Wallace presented 50 of these statues to the City of Paris, and the city bought 30 more on its own.
Most of these fountains are still working, offering potable water to quench the thirst of passers-by, just as Sir Richard envisioned over 100 years ago.
