Pulled into Paris last night and met Kate and Peter, who are guiding myself and Michael and Louise (Scots College)for the next 6 days. Staying at the Ibis Hotel in Montparnasse, which is where the band will staying next year while we're in Paris. Rooms are comfortable and the food is great!
Set off by myself early on Saturday and walked for over 3 hours just in the Montparnasse area. Checked the TGV fast trains at the station. A security presence is everywhere with soldiers at the train station and later at the Eiffel Tower.
The Australian Embassy is near the tower, which gave me a chance to get the Oz flag in the photo frame with tower.
Met up with Michael and Louise at La Madeleine Church, where we'll be performing. What a stunning building!
The band will sound awesome in there.
Attended the La Flamme Ceremony at the Arc de Triomphe. The band there was an Army Band. One of the best that I've heard.
We've been riding on the Metro all afternoon, getting around to the various iconic buildings.
Daylight lasts here until after 9:00pm!
Starting to fade now so will sign off ...
