2nd full day in Paris

Another very busy day in Paris, we went to the Arch de Triomphe early this morning and ascended the 284 steps to the top for another view of the Paris skyline unfortunately again in the rain. After we headed for te Palace of Versailles and took a tour of the rooms and grounds. In the afternoon we were also able to squeeze in some more shopping at the Champ Élysées.
