Bienvenue Vers Paris! (Welcome to Paris)

After a smooth trip on the Eurostar, we arrived in Paris! As we were pulling into Gare du Nord station, we noticed that people we very eager to get off the train. We soon found out why. We exited the terminal to join the cab queue.... now we know why everyone was in a hurry! It was very, very long. As it was raining and we were heading to the hotel to check in, we had no choice but to join the queue. An hour later we were finally on our way.

We arrived at the hotel - Hotel Amperes. It was a great hotel - we even had a balcony.... and if you stood on the bed on tippie toes you could just see the top of the Eiffel Tower. By the time we had checked in, we took a short stroll to a restaurant close by for a late dinner and then called it a night.
