Let me just start by saying...I don't know if it was a matter of squeaky door meeting grease again, or due to my lucky undies...but we complained about our "room with a view" this morning, and in spite of them being "fully booked" they did agree to switch us. We now have a lovely room which looks out onto the street...but the street is only open to pedestrians. We've got 2 big windows that open and you can actually feel a breeze!! Life is cool again!
We spent the day on a hop-on-hop-of bus tour
. We took in 3 of the 4 different lines which took us most of the day. The highlight for both of us had to be our time spent on the top of the Montparnasse Tower. What a spectacular view. Would have liked to see it at night, but it doesn't get dark here until 10 pm...and the place closes at 10:30, which sounds do-able, but it's quite a ways from our hotel. So being that the HOHO bus went right by the door, it was more practical to do it today.
Right now we're having a cold(ish) beer and enjoying our new and improved accommodations!
Tomorrow Notre Dame, Champs Elysee, the Gallerie Lafayette and whatever else we come across in between.
All hopped out!
