126 - Flag

Theme 115.

From the Préfecture de Police, I believe, on the Ile de la Cité.

And for a different tricolor -

Giant flag being lifted underneath L'Arc de Triomphe.

And as we're on the subject -

Spanish flag on the gates in front of the Hôtel de Ville, after a large crowd watched the men's singles final of the French Open.

This made me look up how to do accents on a Mac keyboard, and I also accidentally found out how to easily switch between tabs when in Firefox or something - hit the Apple key and then the number of the tab. E.g. if you have - in order - Hotmail, Yahoo, BBC and Gmail, then hitting Apple+1 takes you to the Hotmail tab. Apple+3 takes you to the BBC tab. Nifty!
