Continuing our Paris travel journal, my daughter had to take a little nap before we began our day. That’s what only having 4 hours of sleep in an comfortable chair in coach will do for you. Our hotel, Hyatt Paris Madeleine was walking distance to the Madeleine Church which is one of Paris’ many Roman […]
