Paris - 22nd to 26th Dec

We spent the public holidays and some frequent flyer points on Paris.

It has quickly become one of our favourite places in Europe after Venice and Prague... for me probably even nicer than Prague. We did the main touristy things:

- climbed the Arc de Triumf (please excuse my horrid spellings of names, etc.)

- walked along Chemps d'Elysee

- went to the Louvre

- looked at the Eiffel Tower (didn't climb it 'cos it was too foggy - see pictures)


- went to Versailles (and the Lonely Planet guide is right - it's damn miserable in winter)


- went up to Sacre Ceur and wondered around Monmartre


- went to
Père Lachaise where we paid our respects to THE Rocker himself



- saw the Notre Dam

- ate pancakes ( you can't actually see from the photo, but the pancake is on fire)


.. and took a bunch of artistic pictures:

Inside Galeries La Fayette


Jack in the Louvre

Eiffel Tower at night

... and a bunch of silly ones:

This one is called "Find Polina"

And this is in front of the Louvre at night

And in the Roden Museum
