Revolution walk in Paris




This afternoon I went on the Revolution walk by "Paris Walks" with Joan and Lotta.  It was very interesting as they always are.  Plus the cherry trees in Paris are starting to blossom, very nice.

The walk took us around the Latin Quarter mainly.  The oldest cafe in Paris where many of the revolutionaries would meet to discuss things and various buildings where prominent people of the time lived or in Murat's case, died (stabbed to death in his bath, poor bloke).

The walk ended close to Notre Dame so we walked across the two islands and enjoyed a coffee before heading home.

Happy Birthday Mum!!
