First day in
Paris
,
France
We arrived at
Paris
Charles de Gaulle Airport almost 15 hours after leaving Los
Angeles
. Of course we had a 2 hour lay over in
Chicago
. Then there was the time diference of 7 more hours. Needless to say, we were worn out. Fortunately before we left on the trip we had reserved a brand new Renault Kangoo and it was waiting for us at the airport. Since this was my third time visiting
Paris
, I had a good idea where our hotel was located. But traffic had increased at least five-fold since 1967, it made it more difficult. Also there is no pattern to the streets of
Paris
. Lots of narrow streets that zig and zag and mandantory turns in directions you don't want to go. But with persistence we found our hotel. And, oh yes, most street maps of
Paris
do not have all the streets on them, only the larger streets. It is like navigating a maze.
At our Paris Hotel.
We did explore the neighborhood around the hotel and found a nice place to eat. We ate there several times in our week in
Paris
.

Quite a Ride to
Paris
,
France
We flew from Los
Angeles
to
Chicago
and on to
Paris
. Very uncomfortable flight. The seats were so close together and the seats only reclined about four inches. I understood why first class is so much more expensive. It had not been two years since 9/11 and the security at the airports was welcomed but still tedious.
