Well today was a huge today and it for Dad it started early in the morning when he went to Notre Dame to meet some people he met at the Peloton Cafe and they road around theChamps Élysées course which he enjoyed. He came back when we were having a late breakfast. Then we went on a river cruise along the River Seine which started at the Eiffel Tour and went all the way to Notre Dame and back. It was great to see all the sites we had visited from the water and it...

It is the weekend and we left Paris for the day and caught the train to Rouen in Normandy. Darcy and I got to read our books on the way which was great as we are pretty tired after yesterday's climb and walking tour. Rouen is where Joan of Arc was held prisoner and then Martyred. She stood up for things and people did not like that and they burnt her at the stake. We went into the tower she was held Prisoner in and also the church that was Bukit over the spot sh...

Today we went to a huge store called Galleries LaFayette and I bought myself two new summer tops and then Dad left and Mum, Darcy and I checked out the food area which was full of delicious things. We grabbed some lunch ad took it back for dad and then we caught the Metro to Trocodero and all walked up the Eiffel Tower. There were 669 steps which made all the other climbs seem pretty short. Most people catch the lift up but we walked as far as you can and then go...

Afterwards we met mum at Notre Dame Cathedral which is also Gothic but took over 200 years to build. It was really dark inside. The ph...

We arrived in Paris yesterday afternoon and waited for our transfer for ages at the train station but they did not arrive. mum and Dad were cranky and in the end we caught a taxi to the hotel. We are staying in the Opera area which is pretty close to everything. We are in an apartment and the only bad thing is that Darcy and I have to share the King size bed. Mum and Dad are on the fold out! First up after breakfast, we caught the bus to St Michel near Notre Da...
