After a very nice breakfast, it was off to site see Paris. Since I am close to the Arc de Triomphe, that is where I will start. A five block walk up Kleber Av

and I am at the Arc de Triomphe. A monument built for the victories of French wars. Massive structure. Around this monument marched the famed 369 Regiment of New York during the end of WWI.
