Back in the game!
So I have finally made it back to the Continent/ north of the equator albeit on a more restricted budget then I had hoped, so it's back to the life of a backpacker!
Paris is grey, rainy, icy and totally beguilling as always (in the two days I've been here). We're staying in the Marais this time which has a fascinating array of small boutique shops and odds and ends. The food is delish and we are staying in a cosy little attic apartment which requires the conquering of 74 steps to access. I hope to be fit by the time I leave Paris.
We are making much greater use of the metro which is getting our exhausted feet from one side of Paris to the other and tomorrow shall see us in Giverny, despite said weather. A hint of jet lag has been compounded by finishing nightshift two days before flying out. Am determined not to give in to the temptation of afternoon Nanna naps which may become a difficult habit to break.
Anyhoo. Let the adventure begin.
