Another Passage
6. november 2017, Frankrike ⋅ 🌙 39 °F
This is another passage way that was right across the street from Passage Jouffroy. While it's similar in it's idea, it doesn't really have that stylish old-world charm that Passage Jouffroy has. This alleyway seemed to be mostly bars and restaurants with very few shops. I think that Passage Jouffroy seems a lot more impressive.Les mer

Victoria Station
6. november 2017, Frankrike ⋅ 🌙 39 °F
This restaurant doesn't look French at all. It has a British name, Victoria Station, but the way it looks, with all the neon and dark colors, it makes me think of an American steakhouse. The outside dining here is non-existent. It's true that the restaurant is extending out into the street but it's so dark and closed that I wouldn't consider this outside dining at all.
I looked this restaurant up on the internet and they serve pizza as well as some other Italian dishes. The look of this restaurant doesn't make me think of Italian food at all.Les mer

Nearly Back Home
6. november 2017, Frankrike ⋅ 🌙 39 °F
This is a place that we got to know quite well. We didn't eat here but it was right outside the door of our hotel. So, this restaurant became our landmark. When we saw this place, we knew that we were home.
We had a great, but exhausting, first day in Paris and it was a lot of fun exploring the neighborhood. It feels very different from London but I guess that's to be expected. I hope that we both sleep well tonight so that we can really enjoy our first full day in France tomorrow.Les mer

Rise and Shine!
7. november 2017, Frankrike ⋅ ☀️ 32 °F
I'm just waking up to our first full day in Paris. It's right around 8:00 in the morning so I'm thinking that I'm almost adjusted to the time difference between here and New York. I'm thinking that it will hit me more when we get back home. I remember that it took me a long time to catch up after coming back from London. Kathy is still asleep so I'll let her rest. We have a full day ahead of us!Les mer

Time for Breakfast
7. november 2017, Frankrike ⋅ 🌫 37 °F
This is the McDonald's right down the street from our hotel. We decided to eat here just to have something quick so we could get started on site seeing.
I'm not sure I like the McDonald's here in France. It looks very cold, impersonal and sterile. Kathy looks more like she's in the Apple store, or some other computer place, than McDonald's. I don't know if all the McDonald's here are like this or if it's just this one. I hope that others are different.Les mer

Order Up!
7. november 2017, Frankrike ⋅ 🌫 37 °F
After we ordered our food, we picked it up at this window. I'm not sure how breakfast here is going to taste because the menu here is quite different from what the breakfast selections are like in America and London. Paris doesn't seem to be one of those countries that have certain foods designated as breakfast foods. While we looked over their menu, we noticed that we were free to order, basically, everything that McDonald's sells. The items that we would consider as acceptable for breakfast were very limited. Hopefully we will be happy with our choices but it just seems strange.Les mer

Earl Grey, Hot!
7. november 2017, Frankrike ⋅ 🌫 39 °F
Our food was acceptable but not the greatest. Actually, we were both disappointed with our first breakfast in France. We agreed that we wouldn't come here for breakfast again.
I got their beef and bacon McMuffin which turned out to be a hamburger on an english muffin instead of a regular bun. The bacon on it was nearly raw. I couldn't even eat it. To drink, I had orange juice. No pulp, of course. I prefer the pulp but it's so hard to find places that serve that for some reason.
Kathy got the egg McMuffin, which was exactly the same thing as what you can get back home. She also got the mcgriddle which was nothing like what we have back home. It wasn't a sandwich, like we're used to. It was just the Mcgriddle bun and it didn't have the maple syrup infused in the bun so it tasted very dry and plain tasting. To drink, Kathy had Earl Grey tea because Alicia had been recommending it so highly. Kathy liked the Earl Grey very much. We're going to have to go shopping for that once we get back home. Oddly, this McDonald's didn't have milk or cream for her tea. I wonder if they were just out of it or if the people in France just don't use it.Les mer

To Saint Michel - Notre Dame
7. november 2017, Frankrike ⋅ ☀️ 41 °F
Kathy still looks a bit tired as we rode the metro to the Saint Michel - Notre Dame stop. At least she got a seat. I had to stand the whole ride. It wasn't too bad though. Everything seems to be quite close to our hotel, which make site seeing so much easier. It's always better to stay in the heart of the city rather than on the outskirts. You might save a few dollars staying outside the city but you spend so much time traveling back and forth. Don't waste time going back and forth like that. Your time is much more valuable so make every moment count!Les mer

The Metro
7. november 2017, Frankrike ⋅ ☀️ 41 °F
As we came out of the metro at Saint Michel I saw that this station had the more fancy type of station entrance. I thought that I was going to have to search for one of these but it was so easy to find. This style looks even more impressive than I expected it to be. I wonder why all of the metro stations aren't like this. It would look a lot nicer.Les mer

The Metropolitan
7. november 2017, Frankrike ⋅ ☀️ 41 °F
The entrance gate to the Paris Subway system is designed in the style of Art Nouveau, an international style of decoration and architecture from the 1880s and 1890s that drew inspiration from nature and natural forms. The gate’s curvilinear lines and patterns were inspired by vines and flowers. Symmetrical, floral lights frame the Metro sign, both lighting the entrance and advertising the Métro. This blend of design, architecture, and advertisement was important to, at the time, modern ideas.Les mer
