Yesterday I walked all over Paris - at least it felt like that. I went down to the river and walked along to the Musee d'Orsay as it was trying to rain, so I walked around the museum to see all the Impressionists. There is a large gallery extending the full length of the museum full of paintings from that time. There is also a lot of statues by Rodin. I then walked back through the rain passing Concorde square, Napolean's column in Plase Velodrome and then the Opera House to the hotel. Today I caught the train up to Sacre Coeur and walked back to the railway past a lot of outlet shops - nearly bought a Paris shirt for €6, but it didn't fit! Just imagine Paris fashion for only €6. I then went down to Notre Dame and had a look around there. Although these Churches are quite beautiful, they are not so spectacular as the ones in Spain which are quite lavish. Tomorrow I am returning to London to meet up with Barb.
