After our de rigeur ascension of the Eiffel Tower, I visited Napolean's tomb, at les Invalides, thanks to Manny & Olga, which, even after a dozen years of living in Paris impressed me greatly. If you go be sure to take the free audio tour - it's quite informative. Also don't try to lead any demonstations/marches as Manny is doing in this photo (Olga and I decided to hang back - given the vociferous crowd).
Our walk up the Champs-Elysées was marred somewhat by the rainy weather, but we had a nice time anyway.
Wonderful shrimp, piperade, rice (can we ever get enoough?) dinner by Odile. We were joined by Fanchette, in fine fettle pre-smoking arrêt.
