There's just something special about Paris. It's noisy, inconvenient, Café tables blocking the sidewalk, bicycles everywhere, smelly at times, lots of street people and scammers – but you find yourself so happy just to be here. Paris is just an exciting place to be!
We started the day off at Sainte Chapelle, the picture in our dining room. It's just as impressive As the first time I saw it. I don’t think I remembered it was built in the 1200s. All that glass! Hand painted.
It's 26 Celsius, perfect weather for a Bertheillon ice cream. Small scoops, but the most flavourful ice cream you’ve ever tasted. We’re happy to have some warm weather; we get to wear our shorts.
We took a sightseeing boat tour on the Seine, which gave a different perspective of the city. There are so many converted/floating restaurants, cafes and even gardens and parks! But I don't think that camping area under the Alma bridge was legal.
I’ll add a picture at the bottom of the blog page of Stravinsky park, each item in the pool representing one of his works. I think I picked out Patroushka and Firebird.
