Hotel Atala Champs Elysees Paris

Spend an afternoon in the Luxembourg Gardens. Wander round and watch the men playing chess or playing boules under the trees. See the delight on the childrens faces as they try to 'catch the hoops' as they spin round on the small merry-go-round that the owner turns manually. Sit beside the pond and watch people sailing model boats. Before leaving, have a glass of wine at one of the cafes under the trees and listen to the band playing from the bandstand in the distance.
