April 4, 2008 Traveler's Log #3 Back in Germany

We have decided that we like Germany much better than France and Paris. We spent a day looking at the sights mentioned in the last letter and we had great weather. We climbed to the top of the Arc de Triomphe,

then took a lot of pics of the Eiffel Tower. There were a lot of beggars.



We headed to the Opera house and took a few pictures there then the Louvre. We don't like art enough to spend a lot of euro on going inside.

Lastly we went to Notre Dame and I think that was may favorite. It was beautiful inside and outside, and we even experienced an evening prayer service with wonderful organ music and singers. Although it was nice to see everything, it was nice to get "home" to Germany. The language is easier for us and I think it is friendlier and cleaner. We still have no luggage and probably won't see it for awhile. Jeff went to buy a few small bags to take home with us. We plan to hand-carry all of our bags (2 per person) on the plane. We don't have that much; we have been washing every few days. Lunch just arrived, so I am going to sign off. Next log will be back in the states. -GW
