Anne was enjoying herself so much after the canal trip that she and Peter decided to go off
on their own to the Opera Garnier.

So we put them on a 29 bus, and crossed our fingers, and this is what they saw.
First, the chandelier (sorry, no phantom)

The dress circle.

The stalls

Glittering galleries.

Here they are at the top of the grand staircase.

and in more gorgeous halls.

Some of the ballet dresses

Earlier, they had seen a shop that seemed to suggest Lily and her dad.

The other name of this shop is "travellers delight"
Hello Cousins! I'm delighted to be reading about your experiences and seeing some of the sights. I posted something yesterday, not sure if you get a notification? Doing very well with my new hip, 3 weeks post surgery. Keep the good times coming! Love Fran
