Tricolor



Alongside our Union Flag (or Union Jack as it more commonly know - but this not correct as it is only a Union Jack if it flown from a ship) the French Tricolor is one of the most easily recognised flags in the world.  The French are justifiably very proud of the Red, White and Blue and it is seen at every turn in Paris.

Last Thursday the Tricolor was even more in evidence along the Avenue des Champs-Élysées as the city prepared to celebrate the 70th anniversary of VE Day on Friday 8th May, the day after my brief visit to Paris.



The Tricolor also flew on the top of the Grand Palais as normal and it was seen just above the trees.  The flag also flew on top of the Automobile Club de France (ACF) on the north side of the Place de la Concorde.
