Today is our last day in Paris, sadly. The kids have been eating crepes like they are going out of style. Our feet are sore, but our heads are full of a million new memories. The Musee D'orsay was inspirational--there is never enough time to enjoy it. The Louvre was overwhelmingly huge, but we talked a lot about the evolution of art as we walked past Egyptian, Greek, Roman, and Western European treasures. We then traipsed over to the decorative arts museum where we watched Jean Paul Gautier's collection and performance pieces--as we(I) watched the film, I turned around to find all of the kids FAST asleep!! We all enjoyed a few laughs over that. Lots of time in the Tuilleries gardens drawing, an afternoon at Pere Lachaise Cemetery, a boat ride down the Seine. Midnight walk home from the Arch de Triomph. Now off we go to Italy after one more day of exploring! More soon! Internet service is spotty--will write when we can!
Love to all!

Hi,
When in Italy, do as the Italians do, eat pasta. If you have time, try and see GHIBERTI's bronze doors. lv photomom
