Our Paris 'hood


This is where we will be staying for our week in Paris. Can't wait to sit on the rooftop deck with a bottle of wine and look at the Paris lights. It is just a few steps to the Montmartre Museum and another few steps to a wine store. And I think one side of the aparthotel overlooks a cemetary, so it will be quiet.

One sleep.

I read in the Globe today that there are random strikes happening in France at the moment, and that Paris transit is being affected. Apparently the French are malheureux that the government is going to raise the retirement age from 60 to 62. Cry me a river. I am hoping that they concentrate on the city transit and not the high-speed trains that will take us to Grenoble and back on Tuesday.
