Paris, Love it, Love it, Love it!

Arrived in Paris today. Was kind of sad to leave Provence, but when we got out of Gare de Lyon, our faces immediately lit up! The color, the action, the people, it is a smorgasbord for the senses.
We got in about 1 in the afternoon, and after seeing the line to get a taxi, an expensive option to say the least, we opted to walk to our hotel. A great decision, I might add. It was only a bit over a mile to our hotel in the Latin Quarter, and it gave us a chance to stretch our legs and get a feel for the area we are staying in.















We dodged several rain storms by visiting street side cafes. The last one at around 5pm was a cozy pub serving quiche Loraine and salads. As we people watched and munched on dinner we also kept up on the tour de France on a very large screen tv.

Tomorrow we are visiting Giverny to bike ride through Monet's gardens and see his house, have a picnic lunch and a tram ride to and from Vernon and Paris. This sounds great so keep your fingers crossed that the rain does not become a factor.
