Our stay in Paris was lovely. In the daytime the sun was shining and in the evening the lights in the trees along the Champs Elysee meant that Paris twinkled. Of course, we walked miles and miles. The Hotel WO was tiny but very comfortable. We were located just off Rue Du Roma quite close to the Saint Lazare railway station. The walk to Boulevard Haussmann and the Galleries Lafayette was only a few minutes and it took about half an hour to walk to Musee Du Louvre and the Eiffel Tower. 2015 was welcomed with thousands of people watching a light show off the Arc De Triomphe and then fantastic fireworks. The girls were funny – exceptionally excited taking selfies in front of Mona. The Eiffel tower was so crowded. I far preferred the lovely view from the rooftop of Paris’s most elegant department store. Well to walk miles and miles ordinarily should make one fitter – I am not sure though whether the rather large mille feuille cancels out the exercise – surely not?
