Long Walk Along the Siene River




I started my day by walking over from the Latin Quarter, which is where I'm staying, over to the Deportation Monument to Nazi Victims and Saint Chapelle. I then crossed the Siene River over to the Pont Neuf where I thought about hopping on a boat but it was such a beautiful day, I just decided to keep walking! Before I knew it I was passing the Louvre, then crossed the Siene and past the Musee D'Orsay, the Ministere des Affaires Etrangers, went to the Place de la Concorde, and finally I arrived at the Eiffel Tower! I was a bit tired and hungary so I stopped for lunch nearby then headed for the Eiffel Tower, it is so beautiful there and people just lounge in the park out front. After the Eiffel Tower, I just continued walking to the Arc De Triomphe, which is beautiful when it is lit up at night. I didn't walk back, just took the Metro. After I send a couple of emails, I think I'll grab a drink somewhere in the Latin Quarter and call it a night. I think I'll hit the museums tomorrow!!
