My Special Mothers Day & Birthday Trip

Firstly I must thank my son Stephen for this once in a lifetime trip.

After a very long flight I arrived at Charles Degaulle Airport on Sat 7th May at approx 6.40am.
I had to wait 3 very long hours for Stephen to arrive, and of course he arrived at a different area to me.
Took a while but he found me, grabbed a taxi to our lovely little hotel Ares, near the Eiffel Tower.

Our room wasn't ready so we went for a walk and checked out the magnificent scenery & buildings on our way to the Eiffel tower. We were both in awe of that magnificent structure.

We ventured back to our Hotel and up to our room for a much needed shower and cuppa but there was no kettle :(  We went out and did some shoppping for our breakfasts and tea and milk, i got soy cream instead of soy milk lol. Back at the hotel I asked at reception for some boiling water so i could have a much needed cup of tea.

I will have to go and turn photo's around before i can upload them.
