We had to get an early taxi to the airport for our flight to Paris - this is the first time we've arrived at an airport to find it wasn't open yet! The day was a typical travelling day, the first flight to Madrid, then a change to get the next plane to Paris.On arrival in Paris in mid-afternoon we negotiated the railway system and made it to our hotel without too much difficulty. We'd arranged with our English friends A&L to meet them in Paris, so while we waited for them to finish their drive from Bristol, we decided to get an early start to the sightseeing.
First off a visit to Notre Dame, then along the Seine to view the various bridges, ending up at the Louvre. We only walked around the outside of the Louvre, we were planning a proper visit for another day.
We arrived back at the hotel shortly after A&L arrived, and spent the evening catching up over a drink, followed by a slightly disappointing dinner (after having heard so much about French cuisine over the years!).
