16 Mar 06 “City Break” to Paris!
We booked what they call here a ‘city break’ to Paris over at lastminute.com and leave this evening on the Eurostar train from Waterloo Station. It’s about a 3-hour journey and we arrive quite late at Gare Du Nord. Our hotel, the Metopolitan Paris looks quite comfy, but most importantly it’s very central for us to wander about in the city.
We’ll likely do some standard things tourists do, like head to the top of the Eiffel Tower and visit the Louvre. We’ll just try to absorb as much essence of Paris as possible in four days, plus a little shopping, good food, music… oh and our muddled grade 7 French could come in a bit handy.

Unfortunately without practice you just remember some basics, and you definitely need more than that to avoid frustration in Paris :)
