Day 1 -- Getting my Bearings

I arrived at my hotel near sunset. I spent the first day moving around townbetween rain showers to get some trip necessities (local SIM card, Museum Pass, etc.). That placed me near the upper end of the Champs Elysee. From there it was quick trip to the Marais for lunch and then over to the Ponpidou for some views from the top of the escalator.
