Our days in Paris were spent relaxing. Sitting in cafes, people watching, eating good food and resting. We sat so long in cafes the waiters even began to think we were locals. Ha! Ha! We were just plain being lazy and our taking time recouping.

Orsay Museum tomorrow. Wish us luck!
Cheers from us both!

Best bargain: Big wedge of French brie, half a long bagette and a massive glass of bordeaux. And a stunning view of the Seine. Six euros!!
Funniest moment: The Israeli guy in Berlin who decided that my hostel bunk bed was made for two people to share in a loving kinda way. Poor lad. Rejection is tough, but very funny. Especially at 2am in the morning ...
