Before we got to Paris we had two main things on the agenda, one was going up in the Eiffel Tower which we checked off yesterday and the other thing was seeing Mona LIsa which we did today. But we have done so much more in our two days here. We started out this morning with a false fire alarm which found us and all the other tourists at the hotel in our pj:s outside on the street in the morning. Nothing like an early wake up call:) Then coffee and croissants for breakfast.
Our first stop for the day was the very impressive Notre Dame cathedral. We walked through it and lit some candles and prayed.
After lunch at a little bistro we went to the Louvre which of course is huge but we did see the Mona Lisa among many, many other beautiful paintings.
Then we decided to split up. The girls and I were going to the Museum of Fashion and Bob and Nick were taking the sightseeing bus. Unfortunately the Fashion Museum was closed so we did some clothes shopping instead. That was almost better, Hanna said. Clara said it was a good thing we didn't have the boys with us because "Nick would have lasted 5 minutes and daddy maybe 20". Now we could spend all the time in the world and will come home with some real Paris fashion!
We met up for dinner at our favorite little brasserie. Bob and I had raw beef, I hope we don't have to regret that in the morning:)
See you in Brussels!
