Paris

We arrived by Prius and nearly got stuck in the traffic circle around L'Arc de Triumph. We enjoyed city views from the Eiffel Tower, the church of Sacre Couer (Montmarte), the top of the arc. This is also where we finally found a Nutella and banana crepe! Read the blog post.

The Eiffel Tower in the Distance.

We drove into Paris to drop off the rental car. We didn't know how quite how close we would get to the city.

Eric and our GPS enabled Prius.

We loved driving around in this car. Although the push button start was a little weird, the GPS saved me from having to navigate using a map.

Saint Chappelle Stained Glass

The first place we visited in Paris. I think this is one of the most beautiful church interiors of the whole trip. Amazing.

Paris' Point Zero

Paris' Point Zero

The center of Paris is right in front of Notre Dame. Every place has a distance calculated from this point.

Deportation Memorial on the Ile de la Cite.

Deportation Memorial on the Ile de la Cite.

This is a memorial for the people who were deported from Paris during WWII. It is a very thought provoking art installation on the end of the island.
