What a nice Easter Yps and I, Curious George, had: a 4 days trip to Paris, capital of France!
Frog (the green guy below) drove us in his car, it was A LOT cheaper than an overbooked TGV despite the car park and highway toll. The navigation system was borrowed from friends; it didn't work until we had arrived at the city's gates...
Our hotel was next to the Gare de Lyon, a nice and not too noisy place only a few minutes away from all the major attractions.
Below 2 videos we took inside the train station:
After checking into the hotel, we went on our first day discovery tour of Paris. Here we check the map of Paris at the Bastille subway (Paris Métro). Paris isn't that big so we walked a lot.
Inside one of the subway tubes connecting platforms:
Arriving at the Eiffel Tower; very lucky with the weather:
There were so many people but they have opened 3 entries and we chose the fastest one 
Just look at this view! Do you see our shadow across half the city, in the background?
The Eiffel Tower looks pretty at night (8pm):
The next day we went to a museum. There are so many in Paris.
This one was about some historic items of Paris, art and some interior design of a time long ago (looks pretty).
Yps liked the staircase, great for sliding down 
We were a bit short in time so (this time) we just passed the Pompidou Centre.
We visited the Hunchback of Notre Dame but he wasn't at home. It's a nice building, the Notre Dame de Paris.
Did you know that Luxembourg also has a Notre-Dame Cathedral?
After a nice lunch we went to the Cité des Sciences et de l'Industrie for the rest of the day.
They have lots of stuff to play with, a planetarium, an IMAX theatre... Nice Mirage in the backround, huh?
The IMAX theatre "La Géode":
We closed the second day with a visit to the Arc de Triomphe:
Day 3 was all about the Palace of Versailles and we met Bonsai the Chimpanzee, our friend from France:
They have a really big garden there and a lot of water fountains:
We had our dinner at the Hard Rock Cafe Paris.
Our last day in Paris. A cloudy but not rainy morning; in the background the famous rooftop scenery:
Place de la Concorde: famous fountains and an obelisk (?).
Last but not least, The Louvre. We ran out of time so we just passed it. It is huge and there are way too many people. We would have needed a week to see it. The Pyramid reminds us of Toblerone chocolate
