We arrived in Paris via airplane last night and are staying in a hotel close to Gare du Nord. It is very much in the middle of Paris.
After a good night's sleep we woke up this morning and walked over to a little brasserie where we had croissants for breakfast. Then we walked over to the Opera house where we caught a bus over to the Eiffel tower, had a picnic lunch and then went on a boat ride on the Seine. After that we took the elevator up to the top of the Eiffel tower - very impressive!
We had dinner at a little bistro close to our hotel. We celebrated Bob's mom's birthday by toasting in three languages. We met Sergei from Ukraine, very nice guy who told us when you toast in Ukraine you say "Budjmo" which means Let us be. So we end this post by saying: Happy Birthday Grandma! Skål, Cheers and Budjmo!
