Bonjour Paris

We made it to Paris. The sleeping train was quite the adventure. We shared a compartment with 2 tall French women which made it a bit of a "camp out" We all fell asleep around midnight and all of us woke up just outside of Paris. We caught a cab to the Le Meridian hotel and checked into our rooms. The hotel staff was really nice so our first impression of Paris was off to a good start. The kids were so excited when they saw how nice our rooms were. The rooms are nice and very modern compared to the ones in Florence and Venice. Those were nice too but in a different way.

We grabbed a light breakfast at a nearby cafe and then went back to the rooms to freshen up. We went to the metro to catch a ride to the Eiffel tower, and it is truly incredible! After looking at the tower we headed down to the Seine River to catch a Batobus tour. We are on the bus now so we will send another update later. Until then... Au revior!
