Afternoon/evening drive

 After a lovely dinner with items we picked up on our earlier walk through Saint Germain, we headed to Paris with our personal chauffeur and tour guide extraordinaire, Foy to see Paris' sights and sounds including a sobering look at Notre Dame and trying to capture the expanse of the Louvre. 
We were at the Arc d'Triomphe as sunset neared.
We had a cocktaill at Harry's bar (for Brett & Amie) to close out the night and joined many Parisiennes and tourists to see the celebratory lights marking the 130th anniversary of the Eiffel Tower. It was a really full day, which we ended with tired feet and happy hearts.
