Paris

After London, we had a 6 hour drive to Paris. The english countryside is very pretty, with old stone walls sectioning off parcels of land. I can't imagine building them without the use of machinery today. But the flagstones are still standing, and still solid.

We took the ferry over. Originally, we were to take the chunnel. As it turns out, the ferry was faster, as the bus driver could count the ferry time as his mandatory break.

We had about 10 hours to tour Paris, so a few of us hopped on an open air tour bus, and took in the sight and sounds. I was amazed at the traffic, and how the scooter manuver around the cars, regardless of lane placement!

It was a blast, lots of history, and I would go back again. Just plan on spending 3-4 days to see the great museums and take in the architecture.

More pics posted when I get to Minneapolis airport!
