The rest of Gay Paris

It's me; I'm back again, and thanks to Sonia for giving me the heads-up, as she has told me that I haven't been posting my updates the right way. So I am now lying in bed in PJ's updating you on the last part of our travels in Paris before we headed to Avignon. We travelled around Paris some more via those jump-on, jump-off buses, which I haven't done before. It was really good as you get a lot of detailed history. Don't you love the French? You do something incredible for your country and then they chop your head off!!! What thanks is that? The Marais, where we stayed, is so great, as it's always buzzing with people, shops and of course, great food. I have been getting a few comments from friends about our eating tour of Paris, and you will be pleased to know, it still continues. My high school French is killing the French; they can't get enough of it. We jumped on the Batobus that took us all around the Seine at night, so we could see the city sparkle. I mean how many photos can a couple of gals take of the Eiffel Tower!!! Oh, did I mention that we climbed the Arc de Triomphe. Thankfully oxygen was at hand as we took our final step up!! As it was Anzac Day recently, they had a massive French flag flying in the middle of the Arc. Sally and Wong, we found the lovely apartment where you stayed and it's looks big, and in such a great location. As you know, I work for the Red Cross and if you see any offices on your travels, you take photos. So we stumble across one in Paris, and so I take a snap. Well, later that night, I see Red Cross volunteers selling flowers for the May Day Celebrations, so of course I introduce myself, and next minute I'm in one of their jackets having a photo with the whole group!! You gotta love the Humanitarians. Bonsoir my lovelies - until next time.
