Day One - Arrival in Paris

---

We flew Emirates from Melbourne to Paris, via Dubai. We arrived at around 1.30pm on Tuesday 2ndOctober, stopped to purchase two four day Museum Passes at the Tourist Desk at CDG and were then met by the shuttle from Hotel St Louis En L'Isle. We were checked in and in our room by 3.00pm.

We were fairly happy with the hotel room, although typically small, even though we booked the largest room. This is a link to my Trip Advisor review of Hotel St Louis en L'Ile: http://www.tripadvisor.com/ShowUserReviews-g187147-d219996-r146269615-Hotel_Saint_Louis_en_l_Isle-Paris_Ile_de_France.html

After a quick shower and freshen up, we simply wandered Ile St Louis for a couple of hours, finishing up with a glass or two of wine at Cafe St. Regis followed by dinner at Caveau de L’Isle. I had the lamb chops with gratin dauphinoise and my husband had the skewers. We had quite an expensive bottle of wine, although for the life of me I can’t remember what it was. I finished with chocolate fondant which was fantasic! The meal was fine, without being particularly memorable and the bill was around €90.

Back to the hotel for a much needed night’s sleep!
