A Constable for Mummy!



which way do we go?

What a beautiful city! The very air was so soft - and all at once surrounded by the french language - picking out a word here and there. For all our novice'ity we did very well finding our way from Calais to Paris, in the underground (with all 116 bags). Our hotel was lovely, Comfort Inn Saint Andre - near St. Michel, a perfect spot. Right next to the Luxembourg Gardens, which after all that, we never did see - there's a long list of 'next times' being created... We stopped outside the Sorbonne, and gasped at all the wonderful statues and fountains which seemed to celebrate many moments in Paris' long history. Here are our stops in no particular order. It was a long day begun with the fountain at St. Michel and ended with the Eiffel's light show..
