We wanted to get outside of the city of Paris to see what the surrounding area was like. The city is surrounded by a ring road – a crowded freeway that defines the edge of the central city. We went to three places outside of the ring road, on three different days.
Mike was really interested in riding on one of the fast European trains, so one day we took a train to Geneva, Switzerland and back.
Paris is a wonderful place to walk – we walked at least 10 miles every day, taking in the sights and sounds.
We were in Paris for two weeks at the end of June. We had a wonderful time – walking and looking at people and scenery.
