Culture, Cuisine and Chasing the Lights

[amaroo]

This is our 6th stay in Paris... without any doubt we've enjoyed this area the most.

First things first - lunch!

 

[amaroo]

No queue - so we went in.

Before long - it was time for dinner

On our way to the Pompidou

First time we've visited the Pompidou.. Liked it.

Just catching up with this TR again as have been away for 10 days. Loving it - the Northern Lights photos are fabulous. I remember we had the tiniest room in Oslo. Hotel was ultra modern right in the centre but you could not swing a cat!
Paris is one of my favourite cities and funny, I've been so many times but never to the Pompidou centre which is very slack. On the list for next time (actually it has been on the list before but somehow haven't made it there).

Viewing art always makes me hungry...

We spent the rest of the day walking and shopping.









This a magic little street/market - well worth taking a look.

Nice to see the Place de Vendome Column is back on display... Did you pop into the Ritz to see how it looks after the renovations?
Maybe drop into the Park Hyatt for a glass of champagne to soak up some of that PH ambiance??
I feel like I'm there

 

[amaroo]

No, it's still under renovation... I just took the photo above the hoarding.

Next time, without the kids - so I don't have to take out a mortgage

Lovely bistro near our hotel - exceptional meal!



I'm sure you can work out what theses are - very tasty

 

[amaroo]

Worth a look if you're in the area.

This is our 6th visit to Paris - we're finally getting around to doing a couple of big ticket tourist items that we missed in the last 5 visits.

We have to walk to catch the first one...
