Farewell London, Bonjour Paris

Canal St. Martin, Paris

This morning we woke up early so that we could catch the Eurostar to France.  We spent a half hour going under the English Channel on the train.

When we finally found our flat, we had to climb four stories with five suitcases.  The flat is clean but small. 

We went out to explore our surroundings.  We stopped in a couple of shops and then searched for a restaurant.  In Paris, dinner isn’t served until 7:30 p.m. and we were very hungry at 6:00 p.m.  We finally found one restaurant that was willing to serve us, but the owner only spoke French.  We used our small knowledge of French words and connected words with food items.  We made our best guess at choices and had a wonderful meal.
