Today was a beautiful day and we decided to go for a walk. We headed out walking to the Seine river then following the river for a while.

We then crossed the Siene river on the Pont Neuf bridge and went into the park. The park called “Jardin des Tuileries”  runs along the Seine river and starts near the Louvre Museum. We walked the complete park until we reached the Avenue des Champs-Élysées. This avenue is one of the most popular in Paris. We walked the full length of the Av des Champs-Élysées until we reached the Arc de Triomphe.  We took some time and admired the Arc de Triomphe which is very beautiful.

After that we headed to the  “Flamme de la Liberte”  which is a copy of the flame that is on the Statue of Liberty in New York. The flame which is located above the entrance to the l’Alma tunnel has become an unofficial memorial for Princess Dianna who was killed in the tunnel of the Pont de l’Alma.

We left there and started walking back to our hotel. Along the way we stopped for a late lunch.  We had an excellent meal then headed out again. We walked to the  Jardin des Tuileries park where we stopped and took a break. There are beautiful views and assorted benches and chairs in the park. After a rest we headed back across the Seine River. We were on the bridge that has all the locks from couples showing their everlasting love. We put our own lock on the bridge to celebrate our love for each other.

It was a very special moment and was perfect way to close off our trip to Paris.
