So today I went to the French open (Tennis for all you out there not in the know), It was easy to find. Walking from the metro station to the main stadium took about a 5-10 minute walk and I must have been asked 50 times or so if I would sell my ticket. The gates opened at 10am and I went straight …

Not for the faint of heart, nor for those who cannot walk for long distances- this can be broken up over a couple days if you want...  Furthermore, this is an everything tour of Paris- not just here's the Eiffel Tower, here's the Louvre, so do the parts that you want...  I've added a bunc…

Day 1 started with a lovely drive from London to Paris. The drive through the French countryside was nice. Most of the time was spent getting to know the other people on the bus a little bit. Of 52 people on the tour, there was me and 2 other Canadians, 2 Kiwi's, 1 American and the other 46 were…

So today was our last full day to see Paris / enjoy life in Europe. The first stop of the day was to find the mini Statue of Liberty. We walked along the river until we found the island it sits on. It was bigger than I thought but still much smaller than the original. We took a sweet picture of it …

After the two day delay in getting out of LA, I figured that the probabilities of more problems were minimal... The flight to Paris seemed to go on forever.  There wasn't an empty seat on the plane and I was wedged between two guys - both more or less my size!  It's great that they have a…

In the beginning of my travels in Europe, I only wanted see Paris..but I was wrong.

Our final day in Paris started with a walk to the Eiffel Tower. We got there at about 8:45 AM 45 minutes before the ticket stand opened. There were 20 or 30 people in line ahead of us. When the ticket line opened we found out that all but three people in the line in front of us were from the sam…

ookay..the past few days eh? 17th January. Fabulous day. Went to the Medieval museum in the Latin Quarter.. saw the famous Lady and the Unicorn tapestries which were pretty special.. Then a bit more wandering round Montmatre and bought a beautiful star ring from a little store that is run by the J…

22 August, cont’d   Well, it never stopped raining last night so we stayed close to the hotel.  We had dinner at a nearby Brasserie and then we headed to an Irish bar to watch football (soccer).    Dinner was an experience.  Beth had escargot and a glass of champagne…

That's it. I got myself a relative cheap flight from Paris to Rome on Wednesday September 23 early morning 6:25am. So naturally I thought the best way would just to spend a few hours of sleep at the Orly airport before checking in at odd hours at 4:25am. I bought the RER ticket to Orly, left th…
