So that's it, Paris is over. We made our way early to the coach park via the train for our journey back to London. Its very sad as this has been one of our favorite destinations. There is so much I never write about on these blogs, mostly because it's done on an iPhone. It takes a while to type on the small screen & quite frankly it gets a little frustrating after a while. There is always so much more I want to say but never get it in, but it does give everyo...

So our final day in Paris began overcast once again. We struggled to get out of bed but forced ourselves & headed out into the city once again. We stopped and grabbed some croissants before boarding the metro & making our way first up to the Musee de l'Armee. We headed straight in to see Napoleon's tomb which was so big. Definately too big for a little man but I guess he was big in his place in history. From there we spent a few hours wandering around see...

Of course we knew the crowds would build quickly so there was only one piece of art to head ...

Stairs, more stairs, even more stairs & some of the most iconic places in Paris. That sums up our day. Well that and the climbing of more stairs. We wanted an early start to get to the tower before the crowds. However us being us we woke at 8am then grabbed some croissants and made our way there. Unfortunately so did most of the tourists & we debated whether to come back but chances are it would get no better. So queue we did for 2 hours before getting ou...
