Settling in and looking around

Steps today: 10,750
Miles walked: 3.97



After a rather uneventful flight, we woke up to this around 3 a.m. on our body clocks. It's the French country side with a dusting of snow.

We made it through customs lickety-split and found the car that we hired to drive us to our apartment. What a fantastic experience! Tim and I actually got to our apartment via the most efficient route on our first attempt.

We found our apartment and as it turns out, it's most convenient to the oldest patisserie in Paris. Rest assured, we will be sampling tomorrow!





We settled in to our apartments, we met up with Shelley's brother and sis-in-law. Priorities firmly in mind, we set out to explore stopping at the first crepe stand we found.

Kevin (Shelley's brother) was the last to get his crepe, so the rest of us, having snarfed ours down already, took photos of the guy while he waited for his food.

Mmmm...Nutella and banana crepes. My favorite!









We ended up at Shakespeare & Co. and Notre Dame. The cathedral is just one of those places you have to experience for yourself. There's no way to even come close to describing how it feels to be inside. So, I'll just share a few photos with you:
