We're in Paris!

After two uneventful flights we arrived on-time in Paris at 9 this morning local time. We were out of the airport fairly quickly and on our way downtown via taxi, arriving at the hotel at 11am. Were met by the minor glitch of our reserved mainfloor room being occupied by someone else and are enjoying a 6th floor view tonight of Notre Dame from one set of windows and the Eiffel Tower from another. The kicker to get up here is that the lift is so small it requires one trip for me and the girls and another for the empty wheelchair minus the legs so it can fit... we get our main floor room tomorrow.

Had a brief snooze to tie us over to a local bed time and spent the afternoon wandering the small side streets near our hotel. Everything is wonderfully decorated for the holidays and we even landed to a bit of snow this morning, Took in an incredible organ recital late this afternoon at Notre Dame. Bach never sounded so good - the church was filled with the rich and wonderful tones of the amazing pipe organ there. Wow! Had crepes for dinner and are about to crash,

Some photos from today... Good night from Paris!
