Paris

We've been visiting the typical tourist sites, in between all of the raindrops!! 

Musée d'Orsay: This was once an old train station. Pretty cool architecture and clocks:





View of the Eiffel Tower from the Musée d'Orsay:



Luxembourg Gardens (our 1 really sunny day!):






View of the Eiffel Tower from the gardens:


We actually rode in a car and a van around the Arc de Triomphe -- what a scary ride! Even the drivers must have been scared because I think they were driving with their eyes closed!


Arc de Triomphe:
We did go another less rainy day and got some lovely pictures:





Including a view of the Eiffel Tower from the roof of the Arc de Triomphe:



Le Louvre:
We got an early start so had a chance to see a lot before it got really crowded!!







We have seen the Eiffel Tower several times but haven't been there yet. We're enjoying our Airbnb in the heart of the Latin Quarter. We are close to lots of restaurants and public markets where we can buy all different types of cheese and freshly made croissants. Yummy! 😋
