This is my planned route for Paris tomorrow. Google tells me it’s a 16.2km walk and will take in the following places:

  • Eiffel Tower
  • Palais de Chaillot
  • Arc de Triomphe
  • The Louvre
  • Bastille
  • Notre Dame
  • Then a walk by the river and back to the Eiffel Tower

Hopefully I’ll fit it all in! If not, there’s a Metro station close by everywhere along the route, so I can easily jump on that and head back to the Gare du Nord if need be.

Salcey Forest I took a trip out with a friend yesterday to Salcey Forest with our cameras and a Frisbee. Unfortunately we didn’t get chance to have a play with it, although we did take some good pics. I’ve added them to Flickr and to the Photo Gallery for you good folk to take a look at. Enjoy!

I’ve decided to do more walking. I go to the gym several times a week, but I think I could be doing more. So on the days I can catch a lift in, I’m going to walk back home from work. I know what you’re thinking – why not walk to work as well? The answer is I can and will. On my non-gym days I can walk to work as well as home again. But the gym puts me too far away to walk from there.

This is partially to do with my walking holiday in February and wanting to get some training in beforehand. I also think anything I can do to help me lose weight is a step in the right direction, so I’m hopefully going to carry on with it when I get back too.

I plan on walking home from work tomorrow. I sincerley hope the weather forcast is wrong as it tells me it’s going to rain! But no excuses from me – I shall be walking!
