Au revoir Paris

Darrin and I had a great final night in Paris with a beer just off the Champs-Elysee (not exactly cheap, but nice to stop and take in the surrounds). We then went over to the Arc De Triomphe, before joining the queue for a look at the Eiffel Tower by night. While it was Darrin's first time up the tower, and I'd done it the day before, it was well worth doing again by night. The tower looked magnificent when lit up and on the hour it sparkled for a few minutes (imagine stringing up those fairy lights!). Check out the video below ...

This may be my last post for a couple of days as this morning we jump on a train from Paris to Lyon where we pick up a campervan. We'll then take the van for a spin around southern France for a couple of weeks, starting with Grenoble tonight, then eventually the Nice, Canne, Monte Carlo area later in the week.
