Cafe Le Rostand Paris France Across From The Luxembourg Gardens

Click to enlarge the photos. This is the cafe in the video below. The one that is too bright in the sunshine. You can tell she was sitting under an awning or in the shade when she made her video and that is why it is too bright outside in the sunshine. This is across from the Luxembourg Gardens.
   In the bottom picture note the colorful cafe chairs. All the cafes in Paris have these beautiful sturdy all weather chairs in different colors.
