🌎️Challenge #10 Saturday, June 8 - Friday, June 14🌎️
✈️DESTINATION - Paris, France 6,000 Miles - Team Spirit & Salt off the Table
The challenge begins on Saturday morning. Exercise & Salt off the Table & Water done before SATURDAY DOES NOT COUNT!!!!
France is the most visited country in the world with 100 million annual visitors, and Paris is the most visited city in the world. So let's scratch “Paris” off our bucket list now. Known as the “City of Lights” or the “City of Love,” the streets of Paris overflow with history, vibrant culture, art, fashion, beauty, and gastronomy. Thomas Jefferson once said “a walk about Paris will provide lessons in history, beauty, and in the point of life.” And our timing is great, to be here for a sneak peak before the 2024 Olympic Games in July!
Let's lace up our runners and walk down the Parisian streets to find the best places to eat, explore, shop, and be entertained. Some of the museums and galleries stay open until midnight and host an array of cultural shows and events. There might be film screenings at the Louvre Museum, string quartets at the Carnavalet Museum, late-night modern art exhibits at the Pompidou Centre and contemporary dance at the Orsay Museum.
On Rue Montorgueil and Rue Saint-Rustique catch a glimpse of old village life, where Parisians still shop for their daily needs. It's lined with cafés, bistros, produce stands, fish stores, pastry shops, and bakeries, many of which have been around since the 19th century.
A 'must see' is the Mona Lisa, the most famous painting in the world, displayed in the Louvre, the largest and most-visited museum in the world, with 9 million annual visitors. To see the most, visit with a tour guide.
Enjoy it all; the trendy shopping streets, art galleries, book stores, chocolatiers, bistros, or the street scenes with outside cafes, chess players, and Parisians strolling by with their dogs. Stand before the Eiffel Tower in awe, or search out the best crepes along the Seine. Paris the city that captures millions of hearts.
