day. cnn s correspondent melissa bell on the streets of paris for cnn this morning. what does it look like on the ground so far this morning as the protesters are gathering together? as you said, caitlyn, we have over an hour to go before they start. the crowds are gathering. i m going to give you an idea what the streets around the plaza look like. can you see balloons. those are the balloons part of the march once it gets going. you can see always, it is well organized. you come, you have a hot dog. they hang out for a bit before they get going. up there on the plaza, you can see one protester got up there already with the german flag. reminder, it s not just in france today they re protesting. this is happening in other european countries and over similar issues. you mentioned the pension reform. that is, of course, been at the heart of the protest in france ever since that protest movement began on january 19th. but today, of course, is may 1st. this is about a much wider
