Avenue des Champs Elysees

We have only been in Paris a few hours and we aren't impressed. As we walked from the Arc de Triomphe down the Avenue des Champs Elysees (seans zay-lee-zay), fighting the crowds for every step, as shown in this photo, we thought it was understandable to NOT be that enamoured with Paris - too many people, too much traffic, and too much noise. Plus so far, the tourist sights, the things we'd heard about all our lives, have not been that great! We're hoping the Eiffel Tower, Napolean's Tomb, the Tullerie Gardens or the Louvre will be more impressive.
