お店を背にして、右へ。目の前の通り、rue Saint-Julien le Pauvreも右に曲がります。そして突き当たりのrue Galandeを左折。主演2人を前からカメラが捉えている場合は、進行方向と逆の風景が映し出されていることになるので、少し歩いたらちょっと振り返ってみてください。景色に見覚えがあるかもしれません。9年前、半年後に再会しようと約束した、その約束の日の話をしている通りです。
ダント通りrue Danteにぶつかったところで、次の場面は、セーヌ川を渡った右岸に飛んでいるのですが、私たちはそのまま左折してノートル・ダム大聖堂の見える方へ向いましょう。セーヌ川沿いの通りに出たら、信号を渡って(橋は渡らない)右へ。ノートル・ダムを左手に見ながら、ブキニスト(古本屋)の並ぶ通りを進み、2つ目の橋Pont de la Tournelleを渡ります。この橋の少し手前の川岸が、後半に出てくる場面で、2人が遊覧船に乗る場所です。
橋の先は、パリ発祥の地、サン・ルイ島。島を縦断するようにそのまま直進して、右岸への架け橋Pont Marieを渡ってください。右岸に着いたら、信号を渡って右へ。2本目の道、rue des Jardins de Saint Paulを左折すると、正面に教会が見えます。劇中で、先ほどのダント通りから繋がっているのがここです。
この道の出口、サン・ポール通りrue Saint Paulに出たところで、場面は11区のカフェへと繋がります。私たちは左に曲がり、サン・タントワーヌ通りrue Saint Antoineを右へと進みましょう。
正面に見えるのはバスティーユ広場place de la Bastilleの塔です。もともとは牢獄があり、フランス革命の発端と言われるバスティーユ襲撃事件の起こった場所です。パリマラソンの時には、シャンゼリゼをスタートして、このバスティーユ広場が一つ目の給水地点になりますよ。
広場に出たら、ほぼ真向かいにあるフォーブール・サン・タントワーヌ通りに進みます。時計回りに広場をまわって、4つ目の通りです。商店の連なる賑やかなこの通りの途中にセリーヌの住むアパートの入り口があるのですが(cour de l'Etoile d'Or。はじめのイントロのところで映像が出てきます)、今は撮影時の看板もなく、通常入り口は閉まっているので、今回は割愛します。ご興味のある方は探してみてくださいね。
1kmほど進んで、メトロFaidherbe Chaligny駅の広場を越えたら、フェデルブ通りrue Faidherbeを左に曲がります。少し行くと見えて来るT字路の手前、右側にあるジャン・マセ通りrue Jean Macéに入りましょう。と、カフェの登場です。
日曜日も開いているので、ここで休憩するのもいいですね。
カフェを出たところで、次の場面はまた少し場所が飛びます。お店を左手にジャン・マセ通りを進み、五叉路をポール・ベール通りrue Paul Bertに曲がります。フェデルブ通りに戻って駅前広場に出たら、左斜め前にあるルイイ通りrue de Reuillyへ。まっすぐ進んで、メトロReuilly Diderotの駅を越え、次の駅Montgalletの手前右にある、モンガレ通りrue Montgalletを右折します。
Sun Salutation sequences are traditionally performed as a way to awaken the body. \"This is great to do upon rising, even before you have had your first cup of coffee,\" Bielkus says. \n\nTo perform the sequence, stand up straight in Mountain Pose (Tadasana) with the feet together and arms at the side of the body with open palms. Sweep the arms up and extend them over the head on the inhale, then exhale and bow forward into a forward bend. On the inhale, lift the torso halfway up, place your hands at your shins and extend the spine. Fold forward again on the exhale. When you inhale, sweep back up and bring the palms together into prayer. Repeat this sequence three or four times. \n\nClick here for a video tutorial. (credit:Getty Images)

The gentle heart-opening stretch of the camel pose -- performed either with the hands on the lower back or reaching down to touch the heels -- can be highly invigorating for the entire body. \n\n\"Camel is great because it\'s a total front-body opener,\" Bielkus says. \"You have the front of the legs moving forward. ... The core is stretching and the torso is lengthening up. The chest is really opening and expanding so that the lungs can expand full of breath.\" (credit:Getty Images)
Warrior II Pose (Virabhadrasana II)(03 of10)

\"This pose combines both leg strengthening and mild back bending, bringing energy into the body,\" Bielkus says. \"Just like the name suggests, this pose awakens the warrior within -- power and strength, but with ease.\"\n\nClick here for basic Warrior II instructions, and try adding what Bielkus calls the \"breath of fire\" for an extra energy boost. \n\n\"A great way to rev up this posture is to add in breath of fire -- rapid belly breath, focusing on the exhalation,\" Bielkus says. \"To start, take a deep breath in and then pump the navel in as you exhale. The inhale will take care of itself.\" (credit:Getty Images)

After Warrior II, try going into a restorative Triangle Pose. Straighten the front knee and extend the arm forward and then down to the shin, the floor next to the leg, or a block. Reach the other arm up and turn to face the sky, breathing deeply for five breaths, Bielkus advises. Then, repeat on the other side. \n\n\"This pose is about fully expanding not contracting,\" Bielkus says. \"Focus less about stretching and more about expanding and bringing breath and energy to every cell, every skin pore, every fiber of your being.\" (credit:Getty Images)
Side Plank (Vasisthasana)(05 of10)
Open Image Modal
For the whole body-strengthening Side Plank, start in a plank pose. Turn to the right side, stacking the feet on top of each other, and lifting the left hand. Breath deeply for five breaths before repeating on the other side. If you\'re looking to modify the pose, Bielkus suggests bringing either the bottom knee or the forearm down to the ground. \n\n\"Yoga brings our mind to a oneness and a focused attention,\" Bielkus says, regarding the balancing poses. \"The more that we\'re coming into a mental clarity or focus, the less energy we\'re expending on that stress. The cortisol levels can drop and then we feel a little more energized.\" (credit:Getty Images)
Chair Pose (Utkatasana)(06 of10)

The dynamic Chair Pose is performed by standing with the feet together or hip-width apart, and bending the lower body down as if you were sitting on a chair. Raise the arms to the ears and raise the chest up to complete the pose. \n\n\"This pose is literally translates from Sanskrit as \'powerful\' pose,\" says Bielkus. \"Sometimes in class, I refer to it as lighting bolt pose because [of] the amount of energy it creates in the body by using the big muscles of the legs and glutes while also creating a slight backbend, which awakens the spine.\" (credit:Getty Images)

In addition to warding off stress and anxiety, the Half Moon Pose can be therapeutic for fatigue, according to Yoga Journal. In a forward fold, bring the right hand about 10 inches in front of you and slightly to the right, extending the left leg up while the hips and torso open. Extend the left arm up and hold the pose for five breaths before repeating on the other side. \n\n\"Any balancing poses are great for finding that inner balance,\" Bielkus says. (credit:Getty Images)
Bridge Pose (Setu Bandha Sarvangasana)(08 of10)

\"Back bends are all about unlocking the energy of the spine and nervous system,\" Bielkus says. \n\nLying on your back, bend the knees and place your feet flat on the floor with arms by your sides. Lift the hips up high and interlace the hands together or leave the arms at the sides of the body. Breathe deeply for five breaths and repeat several times. (credit:Shutterstock)

Open Image Modal
For this strengthening pose, lie on your belly with arms by your side and palms down. Then, gently lift the arms, legs, chest and head off the floor and breathe deeply for five breaths, trying to lift up higher with each breath. Repeat three or four times, being careful not to strain the neck. For more of a challenge, extend the arms in front of you, as pictured at left. \n\n\"You\'re really stimulating the upper, middle and lower back, and the muscles of the hamstrings are engaging\" Bielkus says. \"You\'re using so many muscles in the body to lift yourself off the earth. The neurons are firing to make that all happen.\" (credit:Getty Images)

Open Image Modal
This energizing pranayama (breathing exercise) offers a counterpoint to the calming left nostril breath. To perform the exercise, sit upright in a chair or on the floor in a comfortable cross-legged position, blocking the left nostril with the thumb and extending the fingers. Breathe long and deep, in and out of the right nostril for around five minutes, Bielkus advises. \n\n\"The right nostril is associated with the energy of the sun,\" Bielkus says. \"This breath is stimulating, invigorating and awakening.\" (credit:Getty Images)
