Kate's top tips for Paris:
- never trust the green 'go' walking man at a pedestrian crossing
- always have one eye on the pavement (the apartment dogs have to poo somewhere I guess!)
- walking is better than public transport....although tiring!
- 'Cosi' in the 6e arroisandment - a gem of sandwich bar - yummy yummy!!
Tim's top tips for Paris:
- Don't trust Kate's tips about the green walking man
- elevator is always better than the stairs at the Eiffel Tower....whew!
- finding vegetables on a French menu is as near impossible as finding sunshine in a
German winter
What Kate is looking forward to most about coming home
- vegetables ( does lemon tart count as a food group??!!)
What Tim is looking forward to most about coming home
- shorts and tshirts (Kate seconds this- very sick of having to put so many clothes on!)
More later....off to eat some sort of pastry (yet another big and tough decision)....
