Day 74, Paris, France

Bonjour France!!!
Firstly let me wave "Hello" to my dear friend Sophie in Le Corbon........

Finally Amit......we are here......

Well informed, eloquent and oh-so-romantic, the 'City of Light' is a philosopher, a poet, a crooner.

Notre Dame and the Eiffel Tower – at sunrise, at sunset, at night – have been described countless times, as have the Seine and the subtle (and not-so-subtle) differences between the Left and Right Banks.

But what writers have been unable to capture is the grandness and even the magic…….

OK everyone......oh I am so glad that all of you are so smartly dressed....now step into our chauffeur driven limo, and here is your map

....we are going to take an "Illuminations" tour of Paris tonight……..and for once I won't give you a running commentary…. …

As it always has been, Paris is a million different things to a million different people…..so you make up your own mind…..and create your own memories….….

Paris has all but exhausted the superlatives that can reasonably be applied to any city…so sit back and enjoy our evening tour…….
