Another terrific day. London, St. Pancras International Station to Paris, Gare du Nord Station. Easy, 2 1/2 hours tops. I absolutely love this city. Paris has a thousand faces and so many ways to discover it. My favorite might be Paris by neighborhood. Tomorrow brunch with friends and discovery.
Traveling from London to Paris is simple, smart, and speedy. Go direct from city centre to city centre in just 2hrs 16mins. Eurostar from London to Paris is the only way to travel.So, this is where we are staying. Great lactation—two blocks from Norte Dame.Beautiful Parisian building not far from our apartment.Our front door for the next week.Selfie!So, we were stretching our legs and immediately came across Notre Dame. Our apartment is in the shadow of this magnificent cathedral.Still surrounding by scaffolding, but beautiful nonetheless! Construction originally began in 1163. The fire in 2019 caused massive damage. Norte Dame’s fire-damaged roof is being rebuilt using medieval techniques. The cathedral remains closed and is set to possibly reopen in late 2024.Scaffolding around Notre Dame.We are also within a short distance of my favorite bookstore. I stop by every time I am in Paris.
