Paris is great, so much to see. Yesterday we went up the Eiffel Tower, totally cliche, eh, but I enjoyed it. From the 2nd level I took a photo of Le Sacre Coeur on it's hill way in the distance. I didn't go to the top, not really enough time. In the afternoon we went to Montmartre & I took a photo of the Eiffel Tower from outside Le Sacre Coeur. From there we went down again & cruised on the Seine, I got a couple of good shots of Notre-Dame. In the evening there was an optional dinner at Le Moulin Rouge but I decided not to do that & went for a walk with another lady. We found an underground mall with loads of upmarket fashion shops to wander around, no buying! Most of the shops can be seen all over Australia though.
I'm glad I'm coming back to Paris in July. It'll be summertime & hopefully blue sky, sunshine & warmth. I'll see a lot more on foot.
This morning we started early & drove to Chartres to see the Cathedral there, fantastic stained glass windows. It would have been even more marvellous in sunshine but it's still gray & showery. It was a long day in the coach today & we're now in Bordeaux for one night, had a good dinner at the hotel.
Tomorrow is a more relaxed day with a later start, yay.
