May 9 and 10....

On May 9 we left for Paris flying on Iberia through Madrid. Because we left late from Chicago and arrived late in Madrid we missed our connection to Paris and had to wait a couple of hours for the next flight.

Once at Orly in Paris we caught the Air France bus to Invalides, walked to our hotel, checked in, and went for a walk, a Kir, and back to the hotel for a short nap. The late arrival in Paris really wiped out a big hunk of our day. After our nap we strolled a bit and headed for dinner around 8:00. At 10:00 we were at the Eiffel Tower for the nightly light show, then off to bed!
