Paris by Night

Long drive from Lucerne to Paris. It’s the last weekend of the French school holidays and with the Paralympics on, traffic was expected to be heavy. Rudy, our driver, took some back roads into Paris but it still all up took 9 hours including breaks.

Group dinner out to a French Restaurant, very nice, onion soup was a meal in itself.

The evening was a cruise on the Seine River. We were on the cruise as dusk turned into evening and all the lights came on. The Eiffel Tower especially looked magnificent at night. On the hour the tower lights sparkled.

Drove back to the hotel via the Arc de Triomphe. Amazing to think Napoleon built this to commemorate his victories.Læs mere
