Paris Jour 2

La Seine - beautiful fall colours

Not a bad sleep in the hostel last night. Woke up and enjoyed our free breakfast (mmmm fresh croissants) then made our way to the city for a free walking tour.  This is the same company that does the free tour I did in London. It was great! Almost 4 hours of walking around the city, at a good clip! We got to see most of the 'main attractions', though some were from a distance. Still amazing! Notre Dame, Tuileries gardens, Champs-Elysees, Pont Alexandre III, Louvre, Pont Neuf, Eiffel Tower, Ile-de-la-Cite... and so much more. So many beautiful things.  The weather was great, a little rain at the end of the tour but we definitely lucked out! I have so many pictures I don't know how I will ever choose which ones to post!
