Well after our late night with the neighbors we woke up around 11 am to music coming from downstairs. ...I guess the the Delattes wanted us to wake up! We decided to take our first trip into Paris so after a few last minute instructions and the passing of the keys we were off.
Figuring out the train was a little tricky & confusing, but we made it and stopped in at the Louvre. When we came up from the underground metro and stepped onto Parisian soil and saw the beautiful buildings I started tearing up. It was so amazing to finally be in Paris!
So we walked over to the Louvre. It is SO amazing!! HUGE and beautiful! It's hard to imagine someone actually lived there! I was snapping pictures like the battery was going to die any second. "Stand here. Now stand there, now there...smile." Who knows if I even got a good picture! Finally we made our way into the Louvre, just in time for lunch! And by the time we were finished we decided that we didn't have enough time to see all we wanted, so we browsed the beautiful book and card shops. We had so much fun and we found several books we had to have!!
I think the girl’s favorite thing was trying to scale a small stone pyramid that is just under the glass one that is jutting down from the ceiling. It was like a kid magnet! I think every kid that walked by it had to try and scale it!
We were some of the last people to wonder out when the museum closed. We were happy to make our way home to an empty house.
