On Tuesday we had walked over 17,000 steps according to my IPhone and I knew that Wednesday was going to be close to that number since we were doing both Versailles and The Louvre. The hotel ordered us a taxi and off to Versailles we went and that might have been the highlight of the trip for me. The Arc de Triomphe is located just north of the Eiffel Tower inside of a roundabout.

As most know I am in Europe with youngest son. I flew out last Friday to Denver and spent the day with my number two son playing golf and just hanging out. On Saturday I drove up to the Denver airport to fly non-stop to Frankfurt on United. I was a little bummed out that it was a Dreamliner 787 instead of a 777 since business class is in a 2 2 2 arrangement on the seats instead of the 1 2 1 on the updated Polaris class.
