Last Full Day in Paris

Today is our last full day in Paris.  We walked over the river to have our morning coffee at Cafe Flor.

The waiters were charming and dressed to the nines.  This is my favorite photo of Karen.  

It is not raining today  Good!  Yesterday was nice too but today is especially important because tomorrow we leave for London.  

We are on the second floor of the Hotel du Louvre.  The elevator has stopped working- perhaps the reason is due to the renovation of the hotel.  But it is probably good exercise since we are eating so many desserts.  We had rolls and coffee at the Flor then headed down the Boulevard St Germaine to do last minute shopping.  I sent out laundry before we left the hotel.  

Lunch was at Louise's Afterward we returned to the hotel briefly and made reservations at Coupe Choux for dinner.

  We both ordered Beef Bourgogne which was fabulous.

For dessert we each ordered a Napoleone.  It was quite a bit larger than either of us expected.

It was six inches high with each layer as large as a slice of bread.

However the party of 4 next to us were so impressed they each ordered one.

We took a cab back to the hotel.  The elevator is still broken so hopefully we walked up the 2 floors working some of it off.  

The next morning the elevator still wasn't working but now the hotel employees are letting us use the service elevator.  

Off to London
