This is such a belated post but I thought I had better do it for posterity sake and for my friends.
Mum and Liana came over during the Easter break when Prince William and Kate had their wedding as well, so because of that by just taking 3 days holiday, my holidays turned out to be 11 days!
As Liana was working and did not have too many days to spare, they only had slightly more than a week here, so we took the opportunity to go to Paris as that was what Mum always wanted to go.
We took the Eurostar over to Paris and after weeks of choosing, booked a family room at the Crowne Plaza Republique which was only 3 stops away from Gare du Nord. I was a bit apprehensive as I had never been to Paris (yeah, 10 years in London, and never been there!)but the subway was so easy to take and only cost €1.60 each trip!

Booked a bus tour so we could see Paris easier as I did not think Mum could walk so much.

Next day - Versailles
Although we bought tickets, we still had to queque about 1 1/2 hours before we got to the entrance.
