Left Bayeux this morning at 10:00 - had to say goodbye to our wonderful hosts, Jean and Anna
Lanchou. I cried when we left - they were so great, especially Anna. We hugged and kissed both cheeks twice!!! Then we drove to Honfleur but the weather was atrocious so we walked around the harbor with our umbrellas and had a nice lunch of omelets and Kebab, then headed to Paris. Drove our rental car into Paris with only 1 error which was easily corrected without hitting anyone or getting yelled at. Took a taxi to our apartment on Rue Dauphine (our lady taxi driver was from Cameroon) and climbed 3 flights of stairs to our adorable little studio apartment. It is small but larger than a hotel room in this part of Paris for 1/3 the price. We have cable TV, internet access, washer and dryer (all in 1) and free phone calls to the US. We found the local grocery store and bought our breakfast and snacks for the next 4 days. On the way home we found a creperie and pizza parlor just underneath our apartment. The crepe maker was from Madagascar and he made a delicious ham and cheese crepe for moi!!! Took everything upstairs and had a very nice and quiet dinner in our apartment.
We are heading out to do a little sightseeing and take a nighttime cruise on the Seine!!
Au revoir for now.
