Travel day: Glasgow to Paris
Good morning from Glasgow Scotland.
Last evening in Glasgow, walked to and through a park with lots of green space and then by the river as the sun was setting. It was lovely to see the natural light on the spring green grass and trees.
Waking this morning and thinking of how the day will go, trying to stay in the moment. It is quiet in my hotel room and I am getting ready to go search for what is happening today in the city.
In the meantime looking through recommended reading list from the Women’s Library in Glasgow. So grateful to have access to all this amazing information and the inspiration and suggestions of women who come before me.
I also think I might want to set up a time for regular travel zoom conversations with women when I get home. Check it out: https://www.meetup.com/womens-travel-club/
I leave my bags at hotel, drop the room key and out for a morning walk in the sunshine under blue skies.
Walked in an old part of Glasgow to check out the old large and beautiful cathedral and cemetery. Then back to hotel and an uber to Glasgow airport to catch EasyJet flight to Paris at 245 pm local time.
Through security with no issues and to our gate on time. Blue skies reported for Paris also. It was a lovely flight.
Arrived on time in beautiful sunny weather in Paris. Took train and metro to Rachel’s place near Sacre Couer. It’s pretty steep walk up 🙂
Dropped our gear and headed to get a SIM card for my phone. No wifi at Rachel’s place. Got there at some underground mall in time before they closed. Yay. Grateful. Then we walked to the river. Thousands of people along the Seine. Sitting, walking, running …. Wow. Watched the sunset as we walked and then found grocery store Walked all the way from the river to her place. Up up up again.
24,000 steps, some 16 Kms today. My my my.
Exhausted and grateful for all is well in this beautiful city of lights. I have a bed to sleep in, food to eat and we have safely arrived.
Goodnight faithful readers. Till tomorrow. A demain.
Pictures to follow when I have good wifi.








Seriously Pam, 24,000 steps. That’s insane. I get that the hike up and down to the Sacre Coeur is majorly steep but “oh my” is aptly said!
