Well, today we slept in a bit to give our feet a rest. Then we headed over to the Chateau du Vincennes here in town. It's the oldest medieval castle still in existence in France. It has a moat, a drawbridge, the works. Pretty cool.
After trying forever to post yesterday's stuff online, we finally left for the city. We went to the Arc d'Triomphe first. It was a long climb to the top but was worth it. Thank goodness for the museum pass we bought which gave us admittance to so many places. Well worth the money if you want to see it all.
Then we strolled down the Champs Elysses (huddled against the cold wind and mist) admiring the lights, the shops, the scene. We saw some pretty cool car show rooms before stopping in at Larudee, famous for its macaroons and tea. We shared a delicious club sandwich, French hot chocolate, and a macaroon and apple dessert. It was a delicious experience in all.
Then my hubby agreed to take me on the huge ferris wheel at the end of the Champs Elysses with its dizzying views and romantic scenes. A perfect end to the day.
