Paris

Ah, Back to a keyboard with all the letters in the correct place.

We had a wonderful three and a half days in Paris. We discovered the delights of a batobus to convey us around the fair city. I recommend it as a way of getting about.

Just to prove that I was there, I attach a three pictures, the first being from the top of the Arc de Triomphe looking down the Champs D'Lysee (in the rain it has to be said!). This was taken yesterday at around 10:30 and involved a long climb up a spiral staircase.





Finally a view of the Seine from the middle of a bridge. As can be seen, it was rather cloudy on the day this was taken. It did mean that walking was not too onerous.

I have decided that I like Paris very much. The French attitudes to life in general ,and food and drink in particular, are very much the same as mine.
