Last day in Paris

Today we have had a busy day in Paris walking from place to place and riding the buses.  We went to the Place de la Concorde and through the gardens of Louvre.  We went to the shopping complex of Lafayette where we were supposed to be impressed as they had all of the big brands on sale.
Tonight we joined the people from the new trip.  They were 46 in number so no empty seats  to move around in.  The guide is a Frenchman who was educated in the US so has a very strange accent.  Pam says if he continues to call us his 'family' many more times she will put him under the bus and make him into an organ donor.  We have only had him since 5pm this afternoon - so a total of less that 4 hours!
Lunch today
The crowd trying to see Mona Lisa at the Louvre
 
Outside Moulin Rouge - a fantastic show!

We have an early start tomorrow - off to Lyon, a long drive.  The guide also made us very 'happy' by telling us this hotel would be the best of the trip.  We thought it was pretty ordianry to be quite honest so it will be interesting to see what the rest are like.  Oh happy days ahead.
