GETTING TIRED

Saturday May 16, 2009 - I talked to Alice this morning (Pahrump time - late afternoon in Paris) and she said she is getting tired. She said they were riding the bus and tram and went to see the Basilique du Sacre Coeur. Click here to see pictures of the "Basilique" It was late afternoon in Paris when she called and she said the other were going back out but she was going to stay in and rest.

REPORT FROM PARIS - Friday 5/15/2009

Another full day today riding buses and the Metro with lots of walking in between. Started with the included city tour this morning followed by shopping at Monoprix (shopping mall) for trinkets and vittles. Took the food back to the hotel and they let us use the breakfast room to have a little picnic. All were impressed with the hospitality of the hotel. After lunch we went to the Arch de Triump on the Avenue of the Champs-ElysÈes. After that we went to Louvre Museum. Finally we took bus route 69 that has a route that passes many of Paris' main attractions and its last stop was at the Eiffel Tower where we got off. Needless to say we are tired once again. Here is a pic of all of us. Cindy, Lisa, Rusty, Dianne, Denise and Alice left to right.
Ok cya, Rusty

HAPPY ALICE

The caption on the e-mail I received said Bolongerie. The best I can figure out is that means a French bread or bakery.
