Better day today biking

Got into Paris yesterday. Slept very little on the fully booked plane. Arrived at 3 am Utah time, 11 in Paris.

On the subway, two girls blocked our way on to the train, bumped into Jenifer, jumped off, and stole her wallet with $250, credit cards and license. Nice start. Oh well. At least we are here and safe luckily i had written the card #'s and phone #'s for the banks and had sent them in an email to myself.

The Pink Hotel has 15 rooms and very nice staff. Room 205 is small but has wifi and is airconditioned, rare things in Paris we hear. Walked the neighborhood and had dinner at L'inedit Cafe for 9 euros, a true bargain.



Walked a couple of miles this morn to the Notre Dame Cathedral where our bike tour started at 10. Biked for 4 hours on Dahon folding bikes with a group of 10 others and our guide Pamela from Chile. Saw many sites in old Paris. Really worthwhile start to our real vacation after yesterday.



Bought a beret in a Basque market. Jenifer and I enjoyed today so far. Cooling off before our evening. Lunch at La Regalard tomorrow, prix fixe at 33Euros

  1. I can't wait to see the photo of you in the beret!! Sounds like you're enjoying the trip. I'm reliving my trip.

    À bientôt

    (Yeah, I cut and pasted that to get the accents. There are many other ways but this is the fastest.)
