Bonjour Paris

We arrived in Paris this morning after taken the overnight train from Munich. We had a private cabin with bathroom and shower and arrive well rested. First, we dropped off our luggage at the Marriott Rive Gauche situated just south of Paris' famous left bank. Then we grabbed our backpacks for a quick overnight jaunt to Normandy to see the World War 2 D-Day sites.

Our train left from Gare St. Lazare in the northwest part of Paris. Our first stop is going to be Caen and WW2 museum and then to Bayeux for an overnight stay. In the AM we plan to going on a guided tour of the Normandy D-Day sites as well as some of the Band of Brother sites like Brecourt Manor.

We had an hour in Paris before our train to Caen and that was enough to enjoy a cappuccino at a Parisian Cafe. I can tell TJ is going to like Paris.
