The River Through Paris
The Seine is always full of life with lots of commercial boats,
Bateau Bus (yes, literally boat buses) and the famous Bateau
Mouches (sightseeing boats that can include very extravagant
meals as part of the tour and can be taken either by day or by
night).
Since the Seine is centrally situated in Paris, a boat tour covers a
great deal of the city. Both the Left Bank (Rive Gauche) and the
Right Bank (Rive Droite), are visible from the boat. Passengers
can see, among other sites, the Eiffel Tower, "Notre-Dame"
Cathedral, the Alexander III Bridge, the "Pont Neuf", the Musee
D'Orsay , and the Louvre Museum. You can even see the "Les
Invalides", where Napoleon's tomb resides, from its banks.

Love That Little Tripod
The day could not have been more beautiful and we really
enjoyed sitting by the river for a quick break from all the
walking.
