Paris to Chimay...

Today we rode into Paris and visited the Eiffel Tower and the Arc de Triomphe.  The traffic in Paris is pretty crazy.  My bike was overheating once again.  We spent about an hour off the bikes and were in traffic for probabably three hours.  We did see some very cool buildings, sights, etc. - but most from the seat of the motorcycles.  I think Paris would be a good city to visit again by foot and public transport.  Too much traffic to get around by motorbike or car.

The ride from Paris to Chimay, Belgium was very good - backroads through small villages and farmlands.  We are camping in the town of Chimay - home of the world famous Trappist monk brewery.  We will be doing the tour tomorrow - we are enjoying the beer on tap tonight at the Queen Mary bar in the town of Chimay.
