Our last night in France
We’ve just returned to our room after our ‘fit Paris into one day’.
We visited the Louvre, saw the Mona Lisa. She not really that small, she only seems small compared to the area rug sized paintings of the same time period. I can definately see why they say it would take 5 days to see the place properly.
After that we had lunch at a cafe, a short nap then off to the Notre Dame and the Eiffel Tower. So we did manage to fit the Paris highlights into one day.
Tonight we went to the ‘top of Paris’ the highest point in the city. There was a church up there that i wont remember the name of until Jason gets his pictures developed. We had dinner at a small pizza place that made us a pizza with cheese, ham, sour cream and an egg fried on top. SOOOO good! Does it sound odd? It was delicious! Guess what we’re having for dinner tomorrow. lol
Now we’re back in our room, drinking wine, watching CNN (the only english channel). Jason has constructed a table for his camera using a closet shelf and the bathroom sink. The Eiffel tower is all lit up and looking gorgeous (we have an amazing view from our bedroom window).
Today has been so long so I wont post about the rest of my week wandering around Montpellier, it was wonderful. I’m really going to miss the owner of the cafe I went to everyday. She is a wonderful lady, her dream is to come to Canada in the winter and go snowmobiling. I certainly hope she does.
Home tomorrow! We’ve had a really good time but I’m so ready to go home. I miss my dog, my birds, the cat and even Spencer. lol *wink*
Bon Nuit
