Its either heat haze or sea fret over pembroke coast... dramatic and atmospheric.. we are staying with some good friends and timed it well as yesterday was just a constant deluge and there was no denying it was good to get out of a damp van - the previous two days had been glorious sunshine and even my stinking sandals dried out...but this is welsh weather and can change in an hour... on Sunday we did a great wander over Dinas Head and enjoyed the panoramic views down the coast with wonderful clear blue skies and now its payback time on the cliffs at Solva - damp, misty, eerie and rather beautiful...
Finally we have made it to Paris. It was a bit of a long travel day - we decided to come by train so we could experience the full glory of British Rail or whatever it's called now which actually delivered perfectly on time... and then the Eurostar which was incredibly disappointing! All that beautiful St. Pancreas Station and the Eurostar is sited in the dungeon... overcrowded, dark, lousy facilitated space... and then the train was an hour late it felt like a long time before we got any fresh air - but eventually we wound up in gay Paree... We navigated the metro and found our airbnb gaff. A mere 70 steps to the fourth floor on a rather lovely winding wooden staircase to a very nice roof top flat which is comfortable and gives a view across a lovely Courtyard with some obviously much posher flats. It's located really centrally about two minutes away from the Opera Garnier so a very good location for getting everywhere...
