We bid farewell to Switzerland and proceed to the capital of France, Paris. we spent the whole day on coach to reach the fashion city, Paris.
Day 10: 13/12/08
Our city tour of Paris starts with the glorious Arc De Triomphe, erected by Napoleoon in 1806 as a memorial to his victorious battles. it was a national monument of France.
Next, we visited the sights of the Notre Dame Cathedral and Louvre Museum famous for its glass pyramid...
Next, we ascend up to the 2nd level of Eiffel Tower (by lift), where spectacular view of the Paris city can be seen.. it was very cold up there.. about -2 degrees... we had choc waffle and hot soupy up there.. taste great!!!
Lastly, we went to Champs Elysees and Grand Lafaya... embark on our shopping spree... went to various boutiques like LV, Gucci, Ferragamo etc... saw a nice wrislet from Gucci which cost S$500 plus.. gosh... saw a nice long wallet which cost S$800 plus.. and a handbag which costs S$2k... tts maddness...
