We'll always have Paris......

34 Rue du Fer a Moulin

Well, unlike Humphrey Bogart, we are actually in Paris and it is wonderful.  We are now over the jet lag and are exploring all the sights and sounds and food of France.

We are staying in a small (by American standards) flat in Paris, and you can see the alleyway of our entrance in this picture.  We are in an area called Jardines du Plantes (#5) which is nice and quiet.  Metro lines are close and we can travel across Paris in minutes.  We have seen parts of the Louvre Museum and Saint Chapelle today.  The food is fantastic, and pricey.  Ah, the life of the traveller!  Below we have added a few pictures for you to enjoy!

Restaurant La Rose de France

Small restaurants are everywhere and contrary to what you may read, the staff are friendly and very understanding of travellers who don't speak French.

The Pyramid of the Louvre

The Louvre is truly one of the wonders of the world with its art and history.  We hardly scratched the surface.  It would take weeks to see it all as it is one of the largest museums in the world.  There is so much to see in Paris that we had to move on.

St. Germaine-Des-Pres

The stained glass is some of the best in the world as you can see here.

















We hope you enjoy the blog and photos.  Please let us know you have visited.
