Paris 2024 🇫🇷

We began our day with a leisurely stroll along the Promenade Plantée, a stunning elevated park that provides lush greenery and different views of the city – a refreshing contrast to the bustling streets of central Paris, where Parisians and tourists blend and mingle. With temperatures climbing to around 30 degrees, it was the perfect start to a hot day.

For lunch, we savored classic French cuisine at Chez Janou, enjoying the cozy ambiance and delicious dishes (oh gosh…the Mousse au Chocolat!!!).

In the afternoon, we delved into the history of Père Lachaise Cemetery, paying our respects to renowned figures like Oscar Wilde and Jim Morrison. Dinner at Chez Toinette was a delight, offering a charming atmosphere and delectable fare. There was more space for another dessert 😅, of course.
