I didn't get to do a blog last night as I was too tired to type!!  We have taken Paris by storm in the last 2 days.  A continual list of the world's greatest art, architecture and food !!  They are all excellent.

We started yesterday at Musee d'Orsay.  A magnificant museum in a former train station.

Then we went to the Eiffel Tower.  The lines were long and our museum pass didn't include the Tower, so Echo improvised an entrance.

Then off to Napolean Bonaparte's tomb....

Imagine all of these sites interspersed with train/metro jaunts of varying length, with way too many steps everywhere.  Then to Sacre'Coeur for sunset, dinner, vespers in the cathedral and the Eiffel hourly light show.

Today Echo & I went to Versailles while David visited a WWII museum he has not seen....we then met up for lunch and spend the rest of the day together......walked a former railroad right-of-way that has been converted to a promenade....

..... toured Place Des Vosges, ( a planned community from 1600's) and ended our day at the Arc de Triomphe watching the sun set on the city.

275 steps to the top of the Arc de Triomphe !!!  Oh, did I mention our apartment is on the 5th floor with NO LIFT !!  Our legs are tired, our feet our tired and we are having a ball.  Off for more Paris gazing in the mornibg.  Does anyone know the French for Dr. Scholls?
