Paris Aug 30,



After getting out of the Subway, which you know is like miles of underground paths, I took a wrong turn on the streets above to get to Notre Dame. This only added to the vast amount of walking for the day.


Lunch with a view of Notre Dame. Sherrie, Dave, Ryan, Nan, Brent, Leslie, & Brian.

Brent & I ordered the biggest Diet coke they had. We learned our lesson then and there that we will not be doing that again. Our drinks cost $25. :-) After that I only had one small Coke light a day. I think I have quit drinking Diet Coke. At least for this week.



We visited on foot, Notre Dame, Saint-Chapelle, Marie Antoinette's jail cell, Jardin du Palais Royal.

On the map each site looked close to the last so we kept trekking forward. I'm not sure how far we ended up walking but we were exhausted by the end of our self directed tour.

What a beautiful city. I love Paris.

Getting to Paris


Brian did totally great on the flight over to Paris. I have to say that the direct flight from Salt Lake City to Paris with the time change works out really well.

We spent the first night in Roissy so that we could recover from our flight and meet up with the rest of our party who where flying in a day later. This gave us a chance to walk through their town and enjoy their town hall.
