A beautiful day today just ambling around our area Le Jardin Tuileries to the Louvre and then some shopping.

Breakfast in a street cafe, croissants, baguettes and eggs and ham, then into some of the great  shopping  in this area. Less frenetic than the Champs-Élysées shopping precinct and little kinder on the feet after the 10 or so kilometres of walking yesterday.

The pictures always tell a better story

A good start to to the day

Traditional French architecture

Le sucriteur (sugar yummies and biscuits

Le bisciteur

Angelina an amazing chocolatier and pattiserie

Mmmm…

and more…

Our hotel, just a stone’s throw from all of the above

Walking through the gardens

A pleasant way to spend Sunday

That’s me taking a breather (black singlet top)

Sharing this space with the locals

Through the Gardens to the Eiffel tower

The Louvre

.. and yet more Louvre. It never ends

Lining up to get in The Louvre. Busy day.
