Well I made it to Paris. Two missed flights, one missed shuttle and a missed hotel later. Some time around 5:00am, my bear bud rolled me into a bag for our morning flight. By the time we actually got to our hotel though it was more like 3:00pm. I thought we were going to a nice hotel but instead we arrived at a tiny hotel that required hauling our suitcases one at a time up a tiny elevator fit for one and then into a the tiny room. Whatever, I’m not carrying the luggage.
Time to see Paris! Nicholas has a thing against taking the metro. So we started by taking the metro.
First stop, Tour Eiffel.
I wanted to see if this was the type of monument I wanted built in my honour. One look at the lineup and I decided my time was too valuable for lineups. So I made my bud walk us to the Arc de Triomphe.
Ah better. I could use an arc engraved with my name and all my victories. From there, we walked past some future house ideas –
– and to the Louvre – because I must have blown up the Louvre in some game.
Before ending at the Notre Dame. I wanted to see the hunchback. We didn’t find him.
And that’s how you do a walking tour of Paris in 4 hours hours. Good ideas for monuments for me. Good ideas, mind is churning. Nicholas I hope you took notes!
