Place de la Concorde

This was an impressive monument in The Tullerie Gardens, the Place de la Concorde. But it's apparent that the clouds are gathering and rain is threatening. We actually didn't do a lot on the 19th because of the threatening conditions. We were on foot for the day without umbrellas, so would have been drenched if it would have rained. And we were not close to our hotel. We end the day not feeling very satisfied.

But the next day, Friday, May 20th, will be a busy one. We are going on a bus tour of the Loire Valley to three castles: Blois in Blois, France; Chateau Chenonceau and Chateau Chambord in the French countryside. We're looking forward to this trip.
