Paris

Much better weather this time around in la belle Paris. 20C and cloudy made for a perfect walking day.

Started with a few hours at Musée D’Orsay. Lots of great art that the kids recognized, specifically Monets pieces. Having visited his gardens and ponds at Giverney in July, it was cool to see the original inspired works.

Also cool to see some of Van Gogh’s works after our time in province. Also saw Rodin, Gaugin, Renoir, Cezanne, Picasso, Toulouse-Lautrec, amongst many others…and the boys were almost patient enough through it all:) Isaac wasn’t too impressed when, through observation alone, he realized that this museum is acrually an art gallery…not ver excited.

We then walked along the Seine to the Eiffel Tower.

This time we stood in line (1.5hours of waiting) and climbed the 674 stairs to thw 2nd platform (didn’t take the lift to the top as wait was wayyy too long).
