French 1 Level 6 - Daniel en France - Returns to Paris for a Few More Days

In this podcast, Daniel, our young traveler, goes with Mathilde on a boat excursion on the Rhône before taking the train back to Paris. 

There, he navigates the subway system to get to Rue de Grenelle, where his aunt Juliette lives.

Before dinner they walk to the Trocadero, with its fantastic view of the Eiffel Tower, and follow this up with an apéritif at the famous café Les Deux Magots.

For dinner, aunt Juliette treats Daniel to a home-made "bouillabaisse."
