We had a fun day in Paris. Lots of walking, great views, nice weather. We're all exhausted and up in 4 hours to head to the airport. Packing is done, so we'll soon be back home with family and friends. I'll post from the airports tomorrow as I have wifi.
After our arrival by train on Wednesday, we had a guided sightseeing tour and visited Notre Dame Cathedral. On Thursday we spent two hours in the Louvre, which gave us time to view the Mona Lisa, Venus de Milo, and more. The museum is vast and the art is overwhelming—there is so much of it! After the Louvre we had free time, and the six of us remaining in the group from Tennessee made the 45-minute journey with much determination, on foot, from St. Michel to Hard Rock Cafe. We had about four hours of shopping before meeting the group for a climb to the top of a 56-story building for an incredible 360 degree view of the city. Then we boarded a boat for a cruise along the Seine and watched the Eiffel Tower light up the night sky. I'll try to post pictures from the airport.
