Paris and Us

The best part of today was waking up in Paris. I can't believe just a week ago I was reflecting on going back to school and birthdays and here I am with the love of life in the "city of love".

We had an amazing day. First of all the rain stopped and the sun broke out, so immediately after breakfast we visited the Rodin Museum. The gardens were beautiful and the highlights were two of Rodin's  famous sculptures; The Thinker and The Gates of Hell. It truly is amazing to see all that emotion cast in bronze.

We walked down the des Champs-Élysées and window shopped at all the upscale stores including Laduree. We climbed to the top of the Arc de Triomphe to take in the spectacular views of Paris. Very impressive...and our bodies didn't rebel too much! We have been navigating the Metro and doing such a fine job of it, we decided let's have lunch in Montmartre! We were off once again!

After lunch we toured around Montmartre and just enjoyed another neighbourhood around Paris.  It doesn't take a lot of thinking to know how beautiful and unique Paris is.

until next time...
