Day 33 - Paris sightseeing

Today we had the opportunity for some sightseeing in Paris. After finding a patisserie to get some breakfast, we wandered to the Museo de Lourve, along to the Place de la Concorde and up the Champs-Élysées to the Arc de Triomphe. There was quite a bit of set-up on the Champs-Élysées in preparation for the finale of the Tour de France on Sunday.

We climbed up the Arc de Triomphe to see a scenic view of Paris. It provides a 360 degrees perspective of Paris, and you get an excellent understanding of the architecture and history. You also get a good look at how the traffic flows around the base of the Arc de Triomphe and how the drivers enter and exit the twelve roads that lead into the roundabout. I could watch it all day.

We then jumped on the Metro to get back to our hotel. After all the walking, we were tired and rested for a few hours. On heading out to dinner, we passed the Notre Dame Cathedral, which is still under repair after the 2019 fire.

At the end of the day, l had completed 23,500 steps and was ready for a good steep.Okumaya devam et
