Bonjour Paris

We chose Paris as our first stop. We have both spent time here but not together seeing the sights.

We picked a site a thirty minute train ride outside Paris, and set off into the city. What an adventure we had! The trains were not running to plan and we spent over an hour negotiating the Paris train network before finally reaching the city. All character building stuff 😉.

Our first stop was the Eiffel Tower then, making the most of the sunny afternoon, we strolled along the Seine, walked down the beautifully tree lined Champs-Élysées, admired the rich and smartly dressed on the Rue de Rivoli, and passed the Place de la Concorde.

We found an excellent authentic French cuisine restaurant for dinner, Bistrot Victories, well earned after a 10km walk. Food and wine were delicious and waiters were very entertaining.

Finished off the evening with a stroll to the opera house and randomly passed the home of the Emily in Paris marketing agency. A program we both loved in lockdown!
