Europe Day 1

Left England for Paris by Eurostar - took about 2 hours. It's really nice fast speed train @300kmph, so much better than by ferry across the channel years ago.

Manage to find a hotel at 65 euros near the railway station - with shower, internet and breakfast. Just a small tiny room but the price suit us perfectly. Didn't do much as it was evening. Just walk around the area near Gare Du Nord station. Food here is expensive, so we survived on baguette
