So, Alan and I are back on our “fat diet”. Croissants for breakfast, lots of different cheeses and artisan baguettes, and a few French pastries thrown into the mix as well!
Paris is fabulous-even in the rain! Today we went on a Discover Walk in the Marais district-it poured from start to finish and even with umbrellas we got soaked, but hey, we are not in Paris everyday (or even every year!) so need to just go out and do it. And we have our very good friends from Israel here as well, so lots of stopping in cafes for more drinks i.e. coffee, then hot chocolate, then tea with a little something on the side.
Paris is so so full of tourists but if you know where to go (and also where NOT to go), there are great places to see and things to do that the average tourist does not seem interested in. We have loved the Discover Walks- guided tours run by Parisians with really good knowledge and some fun stories to go with the history. Off to Montmartre tomorrow……ooh la la!
Oh Dear. I hope that the images can come later. You're still taking some, right?
ReplyDeleteHappy to hear that travels and accommodations are going well. Missing you in NZ - but considering the way the weather is going to turn out, better to be in summery Europe.
Love,
Me
