Tuilleries Gardens - July 17, 2002
There is a fair all summer the entire length of the gardens.
Even the prizes are "foot" related
The Flume - rollercoaster with dunking
The gorilla moves. Note little girls in cart
The "platform" on the right is picked up and rotated
The Needle
I've never seen anything like this - It swuing around like a mad clock.
Was trying to get a shot of the blonde who was the sole rider
and who shamed these mecs into trying it. They screamed a lot.
Looking towards the Louvre
Elegantly dress older woman helping girl reload rifle!
Looking back at the Flume-Ride and the Platform
The Boomerang
Bcomes orthogonal to the ground
and not much "floor"

The screen with announcements of interruptions is also typical.
