The end of our travels. . .

Our travels with Grandma and Grandpa have come to a close and we finished with the best of trips to Paris for 3 days! We had a very lovely time and it went all too quickly! France was gorgeous and the people were friendly and kind. We also learned to use the subway there which is so great and smart! We were all pretty proud of ourselves and felt quite able to get around and figure out how to get from one place to another. I wish every city had subway transportation like Paris. You can't really feel stranded there because a subway station is never too far away. . . Well, our journeys are finished for a while--so so sad. We miss you Grandma and Grandpa--Thanks for EVERYTHING! We love you-- Soren sends his kisses! The time he spent with you is priceless!

Enjoy the photos!


Here it is--home of the Can Can. Who knew it had a windmill? Pat was really surprised about that. We actually came to it by mistake. The tour bus (hop on and off one) had 4 different lines to take and we got on the one that takes you to the Moulin Rouge.


We love all of the iron balconies. Such beautiful architecture!




In all her glory!


Dinner was De-lish. We actually ate at a really cute Italian restaurant but don't worry we got our fill of French crepes, sandwiches and pastries as well. They have this savory cheese crepe that is yummy! Very rich stuff!

Da Vinci code here we come! Jason and I didn't go in the Louvre this time (we were there in January) but Pat and Jim said that it was so packed that Jim even took a picture of the crowd (it was that crowded and crazy with tourist). . . and yes, they saw the Mona Lisa! Below is a photo of the Notre Dame and that was very packed with tourists as well. I love Soren's pose in the photo. He was such a great traveler.

I miss Paris! I had forgotten how romantic and wonderful it was until I was there again last year. Too bad my in-laws don't live there anymore....
