Bievres is essentially a suberb of Paris and is reachable on the RER portion
of the Paris subway system.  The Musee Francaise de la Photographie is
located there and is a wonderful, albiet somewhat dusty, attic of a place
stuffed with cameras of every sort - interspersed with dag's ambrotypes and
all the rest.  Worth the trip.

But first and foremost: Eat Drink and be Merry!
