Today we left our apartement about 10am (very early by our recent standards!) and walked the three blocks to L'Arc de Triomphe. From there we got on one of the hop-on-hop-off buses to see some of the sites of town.

Trocadero, Eiffel Tour, Obelisk, Petite Palais, L'Opera, Bastille, Gare de Nord, Gare d'Est

Got off at Montmartre, had lunch; walked up the hill, merry-go-round; Fenicular railway up to Sacré Cœur; Had a drink in the artists square; very hot

Walk round to the railway; Railway down again; Got back on the bus; Caught a taxi back to our apartement

Really enjoyed the air conditioning in our apartment. Had Foie Gras d'Oie (goose), little toasts and a large bowl of cherries for dinner.
