Paris Day 5

The day started with a walk from our accomodation to the Louvre. We spoke to a Toot Bus rep at the Louvre stop which was well marked and were advised that the day before a dignitary's visit in Paris had disrupted traffic. He reported no traffic jams today so we hopped on the bus with a smooth trip past the Arc de Triomphe to the Eiffel Tour. We shared picture taking with some fellow tourists and then found ourselves having lunch at Aux Cerises. Nancy had salmon and Jan had cheesecake; both were very good. Jan bought a souvenir Eiffel tour for her buffet and we debated whether to go up the tour or do a Seine boat ride. Unfortunately, we lost each other in the crowds and by the time we found each other we were both hot and crabby so we bailed out of any other activities and Toot Bused it home. We noted better signage, more frequent buses and an up to date website for Big Bus Paris and would try the Big Bus in London.Read more
