The last day of visiting Paris






Our days in Paris are passing very fast and today is the last day of visiting this romantic city. We started by going to visit Notre Dame and today it was opened. It's an amazing church with a faboulus architecture and with a long history, almost 1000 years since it was constructed. We took the metro to the Louvre and admired it from the outside with the new entrance formed like a pyramide. After this visit we headed for Champs Elyssés passing through the gardens of the Tulleries where we stopped to have a chicken sandwich for lunch. Everything is so beautiful and impressing, we are enjoying every second in this beautiful city. After a cup of coffee in Champs Elyssés we took the metro to another of the highlights in Paris, Montmatre with Sacre Coeur and Place de Tetre. After a visit in the beautiful and white church on the hill we had a tree course birthday supper, celebrating the 50 years of Andrés. We started with a bouillabaisse the typical french fish soup, and then duck with haricot vert and finally for dessert we had creme brulé, everything was so delicious. Now we really were filled up and after a short looking around in "Place the Tetre" and the streets of Montmatre we took the subway to Pigalle and Moulin rouge to have a look at one part of the night life in Paris. We were now satisfied and decided to take the metro back to the hotel and here we are.

  1. Deben haber quedado rendidos con tanta caminata. Que delicioso ese menu frances. Espero que les haya dado energia para la caminata de regreso. De vuelta en casa espero ver ahora fotos de Estocolmo. Me alegro que esten disfrutando con la celebracion de los 50
