Paris4

We are home safe and sound from Paris, having had a great weekend away. All is well here, and the only disappointment is that I have to go to work tomorrow, and my phone is taunting me with the news that I have 101 unread emails. Well, they are going to stay unread until tomorrow.

Started the day with breakfast at our hotel. Made the most of the buffet, enjoying cereal, juice, coffee, cooked, and pastries. Didn't really need to eat for most of the rest of the day.

After packing up and stowing our bags at the hotel, we went to find the nearest open top bus stop (having bought a two day pass yesterday) and had a bit of a tour around. It was pretty cold this morning, but we still braved the top deck.

We got off at Notre Dame, and first stop was a cafe to have a warming cup of coffee, before some souvenir shopping and a trip around and into the cathedral.

Back on the bus and up the Champs Elysees, where we decided to hop off and go back to our hotel for a snack and a rest.

One final stroll and it was time to head for the station and home.

I have hundreds of photos that need to be put on the computer and uploaded, and then I can share some of them here. Too tired for all of that today - maybe tomorrow.
