April in Paris...

We got to live the cliche....well technically we arrived in Paris in March, and ventured up the Seine River away from Paris for most of the trip....
But April in Paris was wonderful.

So it rained our first two days....paying our dues I guess for decent weather the rest of the week.

Eiffel Tower and Montmarte were on the docket for the front-end Paris days.

Once the whole gang arrived (104 cats to herd in total) we boarded the AmaLegro and set sail from Paris up the River Seine.

We took a detour before setting off to see the Eiffel Tower at night. Check that off the bucket list.

Our first stop was Vernon, and we took a tour of Monet's beautiful gardens and home in Giverny.

The next morning we arrived in Caudebec and journeyed to the gorgeous port city of Honfleur. Mussels, frites and cider beer were the order of the day.

The second part of the journey to come....
