2 wheels is the best way to see Paris at night

Just a quick post before we hope on a plane to Cairo. I really enjoyed Paris, our accomodation was awesome, the hostel itself St. Christophers Inns was a very nice modern building, a really good breakfast was included, the location was perfect with easy access to all of Paris, but still in a Paris Neigborhood removed from tourists making for an experiance of what it is really like to live there. At night we strolled the canel next to us and walked past Parisians having picknics, playing a sort of batchi ball etc.. also given the non tourist location, meals where reasnoble in price.

But on to my title for this post. Our first night Danielle and I did the Segway tour of Paris at night. Besides the Segway being really fun, it was an awesome way to see the "City of Lights" with everything lit up at night. We still got all the history etc.. on the tour, but it seemed to come to life at night. We wized over bridges, around the Louve and even had time for some food at a street side cafe. The tour was 4.5+ hours, ending at around midnight. An awesome experiance, and I would highly recomend it.

I will leave the rest of the details for Danielle to post on.

Onward!
