Paris 28th June 2014

We finally made it to Paris and after an hours wait due to a broken baggage carousel we headed off to catch the train to our hosts place in Antony. Only a 100m from the station but what a long way it felt dragging the bike and carrying our bag of panniers. We are staying with Olivier, Isabella and their 4 1/2 year old son Vadim. Olivier very graciously offered to take us to the closest decathlon store a few kilometres away so we could buy a tent that our weight restrictions did not let us bring from home. We also managed to buy some light weight camping cutlery and a lock for our bike.
We had a lovely dinner with the family and only managed to stay awake to see the first half of the Brazil  v Mexico game.

Also realised I forgot to pack a very important adapter from the camera to transfer the pictures to the ipad. So I will now have to make sure I take photos using the ipad so we can post them.😔
