Return to Paris: Chicago ORD ➜ Paris CDG ➜ RER B to Les Halles ➜ Arts et Métiers airbnb@Rue au Maire ➜ walk around neigborhood and to Notre Dame and Pont Neuf. Travel was easy. No waiting, no crowds anywhere: two hours from Hyde Park to gate at ORD, two hours from arrival at CDG to my airbnb@Rue au Maire. Grocery shopping at supermarche. Longer coffe break. Here is the rest of the afternoon…not much to add.
Osaka Garden – Hyde Park Chicago
We have nice winter in Chicago this year for Christmas, some snow and temps dropping below -10℃, perfect for an afternoon winter walk in Jackson Park: around Wooded Island and to Japanese (Osaka) Garden
