Paris Day Four

Recovery day means a day on the couch - or maybe a show - right?

Nah.

We went to the hilliest place in Paris - Montmartre.

Arrived and it was soon apparent that everyone else had the same idea. The lines for the Basilique de Sacre Couer were nuts. The laneways were completely over run by tourists - us included. Its a wonderful place and completely understand why it gets such rave reviews - but every third shop is a souvenir shop.

Then we went to the Paris Zoo. The last thing our Uber driver said when we arrived was ‘don’t you have zoos in Australia?’
Well yes, but this was a whole different set of animals and it was very cool. The Mozambique section was a genuine highlight. Clare came alive - for the first 2 hours - and then faded and it was time to find some hot chips.

Finally stopped off at a little brasserie and had Wine, Cheese and Chips and rested the legs after 15000 steps.Les mer
