looks like I found a new friend...... - Paris

We took a taxi to the station to catch the train for London, then on by Eurostar to Paris. My husband was taking me away for a weekend of sightseeing and romance....
"going anywhere nice ?" asked the taxi driver
"Paris" I replied, clutching the long stemmed red rose that hubby had just given me
"you going to Eurodisney then ?" asked Mr Taxi driver

Not surprised you have a tip on shoes!! :-)) I got to the second level of the Eiffel and had to get off but the view from there was great. Do take a pedometer next time. We took one to BE and NL and walked 100 miles in 13 days!
