We have arrived in Paris, mid day Monday and we're either already intoxicated by this lovely city, or dizzy with travel and lack of sleep. Perhaps all three!!
Our hotel is a delightful little boutique establishment quite near the centre and on the Metro route. It is the tiniest hotel room we've ever seen... a king-size bed with about half a metre of space around it plus and ensuite. But it's very chic and newly renovated, modern and clean. The lady at the front desk took pity on us and allowed us an early check in and then took the time to sit with us and explain all the sights and how to use the metro. Very kind.... merci Jesus!
We've had a quick nap to overcome to sleep deprivation and we're off to explore. (Think I'll leave my All Blacks jumper in the suitcase here)
"Later..." We posted the pics after the walk (obviously) and no one can prepare you for how massive the Arc is. The "Champs" was fun and walking around in the sun at 9:30pm is a bit weird. Judy insisted on having her photo taken with our "cute" waiter.

Isn't it a magical place? We'd love to be there with you. I'm sure you will have a wonderful time. Au revoir!
I look forward to seeing all the fashion buys when you get home!! You just don't stand outside Cartier and Louis Vuitton without going in and buying something!!! Even if it is a hankie! Don't forget it is a romantic city Gary!!
