Weekend in Paris

Lets start out with Friday night.
We went on a dinner cruise on the Seine River.
It was nice, relaxing and very expensive! 275.00
Euros! So, over $300.00 dollars. The food was good,
but not $300.00 good.

Saturday we got a little bit of a late start but
managed to pack in a full day of sight seeing,
eating, shopping and walking. We started at the
Louvre and saw the Winged Victory and
the Mona Lisa. We had a nice lunch in a cute
cafe there at the Louvre. Boy, did I need food
and a coke bad! After I ate things were much
better. What I did not know untill later as I sat
in bed reading Carole's Paris book is that the
Last Supper painting is at the Louvre. I would have
liked to have seen that in person. We left the Louvre
and walked down some fun streets. We bought
some really cool paintings from an artist on the street.
Then we walked to Saint Chapelle a really cool
church Pete wanted to see. You had to walk up this really
narrow, sprial stair case. Not easy. The stained glass was
awesome and I hope the pictures do it some justice.

From there we walked and walked. I was well
medicated and did fine as far as my back went.
We had dinner in a little Italian place on one of the
funnest street I have ever been on. We bought Benji
one of those spray paint prints like he got in Mexico.
I hope he likes it. We then stopped by Notre Dame
and took some night photos. Pete told me Notre Dame is
his favorite place in the whole world. You learn something
new about your husband all the time I guess. We were going
to bike back but we were told it was a good 20 minute ride
so we took a cab and came back to the hotel and rented a movie.
I'll post photos later. We are ready to go out again today.
I want to go up in the Eiffel Tower, not sure Pete wants to do that.

Peace.
