Day 31 - EuroStar to Paris

After a night with an extra hours sleep (the daylight saving ended, so the clock shifted back by an hour) we get up at 5 am and get ourselves ready for check-out and breakfast at 6 am. 

After breakfast, We catch the Hoppa Bus to Heathrow Terminal 1 and make our way to the Underground on the Piccadilly Line.

The trip takes about an hour and we arrive at Kings Cross for just after 8 am.  Our Eurostar train to Paris is only at 09h22, but we have to go through security checks and passport control and we needed to be in good time.
The station is very busy and we find a couple of seats in the waiting area and get a couple of coffees while we wait.

Boarding is called at 9h00 for Platform 5 and we make our way up to the train and find our seats.

The train leaves St.Pancras International spot on time.  The train is full and there is a eclectic mix of people all traveling to Paris.  

There is a guy sitting opposite us that has such a weird haircut!

  
We soon find out the reason for the silly cut! LOL!!!

After a little under two and a half hours, we arrive at Gare du Nord in Paris.  Then a short trip on the RER gets us to the Notre Dame station where we come out on the Boulevard Saint Michel.
A short walk and we arrive at our hotel, the Jardin de Cluny on Rue de Sommerard.  A small hotel yet very nice!

Tomorrow we will explore some more of Paris!
