Paris...

OK, from Brussels to Paris. The first two nights we stayed in a dodgy hostel, but our room mates were good value. Had our first day of rain since we left home. We spent our first day at EuroDisney, it really was a lot of fun.

Made it into the Eiffel Tower. This was amazing. We have both seen so many pictures of it before, but to see it for real is awesome. We had a picnic in the sun before climbing to the second level. It was quite tiring, but the view was great.

Another shot of the Eiffel Tower.

After the first two nights, we move to a different hostel. This on in Montmarte, 10mins walk from the Sacre Cour. Spend many evenings up here chatting with other travelers (most frequently Colin from Winnipeg) from the hostel, drinking cheap wine, watching the sunset over Paris.

You are right Dani, the Eiffel Tower is smaller than we expected!

May 1st was a public holiday (May Day), so most attractions were closed. We did a free walking tour for 3.5hours around the major sites. Finnished up at the Arc de Triomphe. This is one crazy round about. I would not want to drive on it!

Made use of our free museum pass over the next two days. Saw some paintings, you know the drill.

Notre Dame was great, the walk to the top was tough, but again great views.

This evening was a definate highlight. We headed down to the tower in the evening, again with wine. 1 Euro per bottle, you can´t not drink it. It is cheaper than bottled water over here! So the tower is also amazing by night. And we were very surprised to see the light show on the hour. It was great. Paris. Amazing city.
