Katie finished her journal today (see photo to the right). She texted me from Europe and said to put this in the blog as it is a very important milestone for her!
Over in Paris this morning involved packing and a late brunch.
After that, a trip to Layfayette Gallery, which is basically a fancy mall with nice rooftop views!
ChatGPT tells us: “Galeries Lafayette is Paris’s most famous department store, renowned not only for luxury shopping but also for its breathtaking architecture. Opened in 1894, its spectacular stained-glass dome and elegant Art Nouveau interior make it one of the city’s most beautiful buildings. The store features hundreds of designer and international brands, gourmet food, and stylish cafés, but one of its biggest highlights is the free rooftop terrace, which offers stunning panoramic views of Paris, including the Eiffel Tower, Opéra Garnier, and the city’s iconic rooftops. Even for visitors who aren’t planning to shop, Galeries Lafayette is well worth visiting for its history, architecture, and unforgettable views”.
They made it to the train station in late afternoon for the trip back to London.
