The boys were really excited to see Paris, mainly because of the movie Ratatouille, in particular the Eiffel tower. Finding accommodation within walking distance of the tower or the Louvre was expensive but we decided to splurge to get a place with a view of the top of the tower.
I think this location has been my favorite in all of France so far, even including Paris.
This was by far the best thing we did in Toulouse.
After a whirlwind tour of Barcelona we headed to Toulouse arriving later at night than normal and took a taxi to our apartment which was on the 19th floor and had a great view of the city. Even better was a pizza place within walking distance.
