    Very warm in Paris during our stay, over 30 degrees Celsius each day. Arc de Triomphe, Champ Elysees. the Eiffel Tower. Evening river cruise on the Seine past the Louvre, Notre Dame. Thousands of Parisians sitting on the banks enjoying the warm night.
    Our last night of the tour was dinner and the show at the Moulin Rouge.
