Today was unfortunately going to be no different...
Rather than bore you all with the whole days events, I am going to show you by the power of photos. Please remember these points............................
1.Mr DG is 6ft 5ins and I am only 5ft 4ins.....................This results in him having a huge stride and I kind of have to trot along side him to keep up. The kids are very tall too so walking anywhere usually involves me lagging behind.
2. Mr DG does NOT do slow mooching around and prefers to march everywhere.
3. It is quite possible I may shove the map up his arse in about 20 minutes.
So, without further ado here is our 3rd day in Paris.......................................All of the below sights were seen in a space of 9 hours.
Off we go...............................Lots of walking.....................Ahhhhh look we are holding hands...............Pass the bucket.

There it is.................Why isn't it getting any bigger................................Wow.
A walk along the Seine...............................Nobody waved at me......................Still no coffee and a sit down.
![]() The Arc de Triomphe was gorgeous but very busy.......................A quick march down the Champs Elysees (think he was avoiding the shops). |
A quick sit down while we put plasters on blisters.........................And we're off again......................Through the arches and.....................................Yippee..................The Louvre....................No chance of getting in though...................31/2 hour wait...............Sorry Mona Lisa, maybe next time.

The very famous Lock Bridge at Pont des Arts.........................Thousands of locks attached to the bridge to symbolise love.........................We even did our own....................Although The Whirlwind almost dropped the key before we had time to make a wish.
Finally after braving The Metro once more we ended up here.........................Jardin de Luxembourg...............................The most peaceful place ever.
The problem now was................................We had to walk another 20 minutes back to our hotel where we all had a soak in the bath (not together) and collapsed into bed.
Hope you have all enjoyed my holiday blog
Lots of Love
