So, I did not dare to whip out my camera. He he he ... yeah, I see that they check the tickets very casually and sometimes it's easy to snuck in if they are not looking or if there are a big crowd going through. Lucky you. Hi Tigerfish: What happened on EuroStar? I like London, Brussels and Amsterdam better than Paris. Will blog about this aspect in the next few days.

Perhaps I had a bad experience taking the Eurostar and thus slightly biased. I thought the whole place was chaotic! To tell you the truth, I don’t really like Paris.

Talking about the Lourve, I would like say this: I went there a few years ago and I didn't pay to get in for 3 hours! Well, I couldn't find the ticket office and thought, if someone checked the ticket, then I would buy it. But hey, nobody checked! By the time I left, I saw a long queue and two persons were checking the tickets... hehehehe! :p Where is the famous picture, Mona Lisa?

Am glad you like the pictures. Hi Tigerfish: What was your impression of Paris? I think Paris is romantic and can't help hoping that Suanne was there. At the sametime, I think Paris is also quite dirty. The tourist spots were clean and beautiful but away from them, I see a lot of litter and graffiti. Hi Chubbypanda: Thanks for the feedback.

I also took the Eurostar to Paris, then did the Lourve, Arc De Triomphe, and Champs de Elysee. I was almost on the same schedule as you many many years ago.
