Well, it sounds (and looks like) like the girls are having a ball with Gramma Peg & Pop Paul. The morning I left, Lolo was pondering her options..."Mama, what should I wear today? Should I be Belle?" Looks like she did decide to be Belle after all.
We're going to wait until we're not so jetlagged to call them....although as you can imagine, we're missing them like crazy. Everywhere I turn, I think of them. In the pastry shops....wandering through the parks....
Jim and I got into Paris early this morning and have started the "touristy" thing with gusto. Wandered over to the Eiffel Tower and Trocodero, had lunch at an outdoor cafe while people watching, and yes...stopped at NOT ONE, but TWO pastery shops. We had earmarked one shop on our way to the Tower and then we ran into LeNotre on our way back. So, yes, I've decided to make it a quest to try a chocolate croissant at every shop.
And no, I don't believe that French lessons have helped me at all. The first three people I tried to speak French to....replied in English. However, the girls at the pastry shops let me suffer and attempt French. However, I did manage to get a croissant and some macarons. YUM!
This is going to be fun.
