Weekend in Paris

Sep 16, 2019 • in: photos • tags: vacation, paris

A week ago we've been to Paris. We only where there for the weekend and on Monday, but we still saw a lot. Mostly we've been walking around downtown and visited the Marie Curie museum which we can recommend. We've also of course been on the Eiffel tower and we've had wine and baguette on the stairs of Sacré-Coeur. On Sunday we visited the Versailles palace, which was very crowded but still worth it. The tickets are a bit pricey, try to go on a day without the musical fountains then it'll be cheaper. In any case, buy the tickets online and pick an priority entry time or you will wait in the queue for probably an hour.

How to make maps for hiking

If you ever go hiking, you might want to take some maps with you. As we are preparing for a hike in Sweden, we found that we need more than one map and each is about 16€.
