Saturday 15 October An early start and breakfast at a cost little cafe. Some nice illy coffee and eggs, ham an cheese on bread while Jen had an omelette.
A bus ride to the airport with amazing views of the mountain ranges and then on an EasyJet flight to Paris.
Arrived in Paris and no Internet on IPhone. Need to use paper map. Nightmare, where's the blue gps dot telling me where I am! Jen did a good job on the map and local trains and we got there within 1.5 hours of landing. Our host met us and handed over Jen's camera from UPS from Germany. Hooray!
We took a local train to close to the Arc de triumph and walked down the Champs-Élysées. We climbed the stairs and took the required pictures. The tower lit up and sparkled with its beam if light circling, which was nice. Now to climb back down an find some food! A long day, late night, sore feet and no dinner yet makes for grumpy John. Bring on some good food and a big glass of wine/beer (or both).
Dinner at le Petite something with one of the best waiters we have seen. Duck Confit and some red, then bed.
