Today we had a great day. The weather couldn't be any better. Last night was interesting, as around 2a, some 'drunk' was kicked out of the nudie bar (we are in the middle of Sex City I think!!), so we finally had to close our window. The hotel was caught off guard with the weather, and the air conditioning hasn't been working very well. They were spending today trying to get it fixed!!
Laure & I were off early to the Louvre this morning. Didn't encounter many crowds and got to see the Mona Lisa, the Code of Hammurabi, Winged Victory, and other fascinating things. Wonderful! Some of you know that I'm really not a museum person, but it was truly wonderful!! Did I write about the Arc De Triumph yet??
We had lunch at the Louvre - I had Quiche Lorraine - perfect for France I thought, and we headed back around 2p. We went to the Eiffel Tower this afternoon with the purpose of taking the Seine river cruise. 2 of us had to use the Loo, so we watched some 'scam' artists conning people. The same 5 people were there, and they got 'unsuspecting' customers to 'bet', and it was fun to watch. Apparently they had a 'lookout' as they scattered with a moments notice until the coast was clear. My feet were sore, so we came back to our room and had wonderful cheeses, baguettes, salami & fruite while Beth & Andrew went out for a nice dinner. We watched the children and had a great time. Not sure what tomorrow has, but possibly Versailles or Giverny!!
Stay tuned!
