At St. Pancras International
Awaiting our turn to go through security
There were many pigeons at the train station.
***
After a train ride aboard the Eurostar, we arrive at Gare du Nord.
The North Station.
Off to find our coach.
Coach found.
***
On the road again.
First stop, Tour Eiffel!!!
My big moment with Miss 1!!!
It's such a better view at night, lit up.
First lunch in Paris.
Walking along the Seine
With it's many Pont - bridges.
Planned on visiting the Musee d'Orsay, but decided last minute against.
Took a picture with the rhino.
Then went for a long lunch.
As one does in Paris!
Since it was day before Bastille Day, there were a lot of aircraft practicing for a big show.
Onward.
Had to take a few photos with my bread t-shirt, in Paris!
In the background was an exhibit for Yayoi Kusama, wanted to go, but no time!
Off to find dinner.
***
This place was a gem!
***
Next morning, breakfast in our hotel.
Check out the size of the Nutella!
Traffic jam.
***
First stop: the Catacombs!
A heart of skulls.
Before this, I hadn't really known what an ossuary was.
Respect.
***
Left to our own devices to find lunch.
:)
A boulangerie!
I want those plants.
Just one of each, please.
Captain!
Here's to roomies becoming dear friends!
Lunch found.
Joan d'Arc!!!
***
A quick trip through the Louvre.
The crowds were too much so we bailed early.
Don't worry, we'll come back...
In late winter!
***
Meanwhile, this left time for us to go on a walk...
And hunt down our old neighborhood from way-back-when!
5 Rue de Varenne, I miss you!
Then Starbucks.
***
Too soon, we hopped on the plane back to SLC.
Some sketches that I did while on the plane...
Goodbye Paris, we'll see you again soon.
