Well, I guess the recovery day helped - I feel well enough to get around now! To make up for lost time, we decided to combine a couple days worth of sightseeing into one. We started with the Eiffel Tower, which was truly worth seeing even though you see it in every postcard/ movie taking place in Paris. It's too bad that it was cloudy today - we couldn't see the tip of the Tower. We also saw the Arc de Triomphe and Notre Dame. Notre Dame was a very impressive cathedral - it was a very fine display of Gothic architecture and the interior was also remarkable . Both the Latin Quarter and Champ Elysses were probably quieter than what they normally are because it was New Year's Day, but that was nice its own way. As for the food, I had a good crepe from a street vendor in the Latin Quarter and some very good (albeit very rich) French onion soup at a cafe.
