Day 2 In Paris – Musee d’Orsay Here We Come

Saturday, March 3rd, 2007 at9:40 am by traveltripz

We awoke on the second morning in Paris to the sound of the street cleaning machines. Funnily enough we had been told that Paris was a dirty city. Well we certainly did not see any signs of the things we were told to expect.

If anything the city was sparkling clean and the street cleaner came down our street with certain regularity every morning at around 5:30am.

We breakfasted in the little restaurant in the basement of the hotel, on ham, a variety of cheeses croissants, cereal, fruit and juices. Everything was fresh and unpolluted with preservatives. What a lovely change to smell and taste fresh food.

Then off we set to the Musee d’Orsay.

You can see the old railway clock in the background. More on the history of the Musee d’Orsay to come.
