Paris

After a harrowing 10 hours on the bus, we finally arrived in Paris. Caitlin had flown in the day before and met us at our hotel. She had spent 2 days in this wonderful city so was able to show us around.

The next am we joined a city tour with the group who came to Paris with us to get our bearings and be shown the historical points of interest. Included were the Champs De Elysse, Eiffel Tower, Arc De Triomph, The Louvre whilst moving back and forth over the River Seine.

We have fallen in love with this city and wish to come back to explore further. We had two days of trying to fit it all in.... Our free time shopping, site seeing, afternoon at MontMartre, night river cruises to see the Eiffel Tower lit up at night, and an eventful eve at the Moulin Rouge....
Still we needed much more time. This was only a taste.

Friday morning was the official end of our tour with APT. We have been extremely well looked after and recommend this company for any travel plans in the future.

Now we are on our own....to travel by fast train to south of France. Our cottage awaits in a little village called Uzes....near Avignon.
