Paris-Summer of 09












This summer was full of quick trips to easy Europen cities. After a week in Rome I determined that one can over stay in one city. Our first big city trip was to Paris, we were able to rent a townhouse near DisneyWorld Paris. It held the family and was a good price, we took the train into the city from the near by station.








On our first day we went to Versilles in the morning, we were the first family in line to get tickets. It is our tradition, get there early before the crowds. We would repeat that in London at the Tower of London and West Minster Abby.














We toured the palace and the garden with some very nice fountians we got lunch in the garden, to keep with the location we had french fries, one must live like the locals, as they say when in Rome...except we were in Paris of course.




After Versilles we rode the train back into Paris and saw the Eiffel tower, the Arc de Triumphe, and the Sacre Coeure. Not bad for one day. The next day we were 3rd in line for the Louver, then to Notre Dame, we finished the trip with some shopping. Paris in two days not bad.
