This trip was made with my Fiat Tipo in the company of my mother, my daughter and another person. We go to France through the Mont Blanc tunnel and the long pause in Chamonix Mont Blanc. This town on the French side of Mont Blanc is one of the most famous mountain resorts in the world. From here the French section of the cable transnational Courmayeur in Italy. Avoid stepping on the cable car but look at the bottom station Spire du Midi, which seems small in the distance. We visit the very pretty town and crossed a stream and then continue on the road to Geneva near which we enter in Switzerland (see itinerary on). After the brief stop in Geneva evening we return to France at St.Gines be staying in a motel located on a hill. The next day we go to Dijon, where we stop for lunch in a restaurant in Old Town. We take the opportunity to visit the city which has numerous medieval architecture, a magnificent Cathedral and numerous half-timbered houses. We liked Dijon and satisfied with the brief stop in the evening we go to Reims where we admire the magnificent Gothic Cathedral by the monumental facade from which you throw a couple of bold towers. Look closely at the many sculptures located on the outside of the Church then at dusk we move to the Marne Valley, where staying in a small hotel. The next day we visit the Park of Disneyland Paris opened recently. Despite a cold and rainy day the park is crowded and to access the various attractions you must submit to long queues. Still managed to climb on almost all games, to attend many shows and see the big parade on Main Street USA The park is well organized, there are appearing in every corner to the delight of children and really seems to be a fairy tale. Unfortunately the next time it will visit not find as rich. On leaving the park we walk to the mall adjacent to a long road with local really chic, a true American heart of Europe. The next day we move to Paris, we park the car in a suburb and we reach the center by Metro. We visit the Louvre, trying to see things in my view more significant then walk through the Tuileries Gardens to the Obelisk in Place de la Concorde. From here the nearby Petit Palais, Grand Palais and the Musée de la Decouverte, an interesting display of gadgets by scientist and astronomy to connect visitors with the discoveries and inventions of mankind. Unfortunately there are no explanations in Italian and this limits our involvement. We see from limitiamoa lontanol'Arco Triumph then go to the Metro Trocadero Square, where on the terrace of the two semicircular Chaillot Palace is a splendid view of the Eiffel Tower and the Champ de Mars. From here again with the Metro accompany my mother and my daughter at the train station from where I will return to Italy while the other person and we continue our visit of Paris. In the evening we walk the streets of the trendy shops of the capital through the Palace, seat of the President of the Republic and the Church of the Madeleine, which resembles a Greek temple. Reached the district of Pigalle stay in a hotel. The next morning we take a walk in the area to "red light" in Pigalle to the famous Moulen Rouge. The long road is lined with sex shops, night clubs, streap hause and anything related to sex. The doors of these rooms open day and night there's always someone inviting you to enter. We go to a night out of curiosity, make us sit at a table while a young lady performs on the track in a rather seedy strip, when the waiter brings the bill to come out of our drinking we pretended to cry, what a shame! Better reach the Parc de la Villette Metro to see the Citadel of Science and Industry. Here, as had happened to the Museo de la Decouverte we are in trouble to use all those gadgets that are made available to the absence of instructions in Italian. The park is the Geode, a huge futuristic sphere in which we witness the screening of a film of enormous size. After the screening and let La Villette Metro back to the place where the previous morning we had parked our car. From here we move to Calais where we board for Great Britain (see itinerary on). On returning from Great Britain will return by ferry to Calais and from there return to Italy.
