Paris

Our day started late morning after the hectic day we had in the Somme. We found the yellow hop on/off open double decker bus and made our way through Paris hopping off here and there and getting to see what was where. It was a great way to view this huge city with its magnificent old buildings and huge statues everywhere. We were merrily travelling along on our bus not realising how late it was when they announced the bus was finished for the day. So here we were in the middle of Paris and needed to find our way back to our hotel. Luckily we had the hotel address but no idea how to use their underground at that stage or which station to travel to. To make it worse the Info people at the station had all closed. Cut a long story short we finally found our way back and by then had mastered the Metro. It's easy once you know.

Outside the Opera House one of my favourite buildings here in Paris.
