Day 67
Paris Day 2 - Beauty & Sprain!
July 19, 2023 in France ⋅ ☁️ 23 °C
This morning we had breakfast in our room and then walked down to firstly see the Sainte Chappelle. It has been on our list for a VERY long time and did not disappoint. What beautiful leadlight in a magnificent setting. We parted with Phil & Diane after that and walked quite a long way to get to the Musee D'Orsay - a favourite of both of us. It was very crowded so we made sure we went to see the Degas & Manet exhibition and then some of our other favourites. All wonderful until I missed a step and twisted my ankle. Managed to walk all the way home but it's all swollen now!!Read more
Traveler We loved Sainte Chapelle. Hope your ankle recovers quickly.

Day 68
Paris the Beauty/Garnier Opera
July 20, 2023 in France ⋅ ☁️ 25 °C
Last night we had a wonderful couple of hours with John Mitchell and his wife Nicole and second baby Hayden. John was our neighbour and Luke's good friend when we lived in Azalea Street, Prospect:). They have lived in Paris for the last five years - working for the OECD and WHO. What a lovely young couple getting the most out of their lives. Nicole gave us a lovely box of Popelini - yummy miniature Paris creamy puffs/eclairs - various flavours and we have decided they are better than macarons! This morning we tried to UBER to the Garnier Opera House but the UBER rejected our request because it seemed very busy. We ended up taking the Metro. The Opera building is magnificent and certainly worth seeing again - and sharing it with the other three. (Photo 3 is looking down to our hotel lobby from our 5th Floor room. Glad there is a lift!Read more
Traveler How amazing is the Opera House!

Day 68
Paris Beauty/Galleries Lafayette
July 20, 2023 in France ⋅ ☁️ 25 °C
After a good coffee (thank goodness - Italian coffee is MUCH better), we went on to Galleries Lafayette. Such a gorgeous store and besides the galleries we went up to the top of the dome and then to the roof to see magnificent views of Paris. Afterwards, we walked and got a little lost but saw some more areas of Paris e.g. the theatre area - Rocador - but it was busy everywhere! We also enjoyed another baguette with tomato, mozzarella and more! The bread in France is better than in Italy!Read more
