Free day in Paris

Unfortunately the weather was not the best today, with light rain, mist and a top temperature of five degrees, however a small group of us, capably led by our fearless tour directors Sandra and Carla, set out for a walking tour of Paris to make the most of our last day here.  First stop was Place de la Concord, followed by the Tuileries Gardens, photos outside the Louvre, lunch just off the Avenue des Champs-Elysses, Les Places des Voges (which I quickly realised I had visited with Bridget back in 2001) with an afternoon tea stop for a decadent hot chocolate and creme brulee (it was the last day here so why not), finishing up at Notre Dame, where there was actually a mass being held, so it was different to see the cathedral full of worshippers.
