A wider view of backstage reveals plenty of large equipment is still in the area, including a large white crane.

Over in front of Les Halles Boulangerie & Patisserie in the France Pavilion, work removing and replacing older cobblestones has progressed. The new flooring almost reaches Monsieur Paul.

That does it for our flight over France. Stay tuned for more updates as we monitor the progress of this project.
