I took the opportunity of my visit in Czech Rep and booked a flight from Prague to Paris. The price for was more than welcoming, only 5300 CK ( 215UD) for the return flight.
I found a hostel in the center of town, just few minutes walk from the metro station.
I spent 5 days walking and walking all over the city.
Exploring the narrow and steep streets of Montmarte with it's small cafes. Hiding away from the sun and feeling the groovy vibes at the Montmarte cemetery, where famous artists rest in peace under the trees in overgrown old graves.

I watched the sun set over the town from the Sacre -Caeur.
I spend hours walking along the river Siene stopping in the Louver, Notere Dame, strolling along the Blvd St. Michell looking for discounted English books in the book stores.

Resting in the gardens of Louve, Luxembourg Palace and Versailles.

Eating fresh croissants that were crispy on the outside but the inside melting in your mouth., was the best start of the day. I even started to drink coffee, just to have an excuse to sit in the small cafes and watch people walk by.
Last few days were all about escaping the crowded and overly touristy sights , looking for the perfect small cafe with good red wine and delicious plates of pate. Last day, I had lovely picnic in the Louver with cured salmon, selection of cheese, olives, wine, and fresh baguette. Yummy.
The only annoyances ..... too many tourists, not enough public toilets and too many people bugging you to buy selfie sticks.
Transfer home turned into bit of an adventure on it's own, with the 18 hour delay, as our plane had technical problem. I thing I learned .... don't fly the Czech Airlines and don't fly to/ from Terminal 3 in if you can avoid it.
