I’m in Paris now, and indeed do have a room at Grand Hôtel Lévêque on Rue Cler – it’s excellent! I’m glad I got a room here, it’s very close to everything as far as I can tell, and it seems to be a very popular part of town (lots of restaurants and cafés open late and such.)
The train ride over was great as well, it was my first time on a TGV, and they are seriously fast. Traveling at 160+MPH is quite the thing to do. I hope we can have trains like that in the U.S. sometime in the future! Quite a step up from the Talgo I took from BCN to Montpellier, and even the Teoz’ that I’ve ridden on elsewhere.
More pictures and updates tomorrow, for now I’ve had a great dinner and I’m ready for bed so I can wake up early and continue enjoying Paris tomorrow! Au revoir!
