We returned yesterday from a three day visit to Paris. We had a wonderful time being tourists, i.e., walked miles and miles, got museum passes - a great deal which gets you into about 30 museums and monuments for one price and enables you to avoid the long lines by using the
group entrances - rode the metro, ate at cafes, etc. We stayed at a nice little 2-star hotel near Rue Mouffetard in what's called the Contrescarpe district (at least it's called that by Rick Steves, whose hotel recommendations we've had good luck with) called Hotel L'Esperance.

These photos are among the HUNDREDS we took during our visit (4 overnights). We're succumbing more and more to the "fire at will, if it moves shoot it, you can always delete it" mentality engendered by the digital camera. We took the laptop and downloaded the pix each evening, then recharged the battery overnight and voila!, didn't miss a single photo op.
This installment of the blog is in 4 parts because I'm a helpless victim of technology and can't for the life of me figure out how to make it do what I want it to. It (the technology) has decided in its infinite wisdom that it will only load a few pictures onto each page, and who am I to argue?
So just consider this a 4-page letter.
Onward!
