Eating Moules & Frites on the Grand Place (mussels and fries)
Walking around all the canals (watch out for bicyclists, cars,
and horse-drawn carriages while walking!)

Kids being kids!
The boat ride along the canal is a must-do!

PARIS, FRANCE
We spent 4 lovely days in Paris.
Some days were cold, but we saw the sun everyday.
Arrived by bullet train 1 hr 20 minutes
We were there by 9am.

Waiting in line to climb the bell tower at Notre Dame

River Seine
Beautiful Parisian doors!

Arc de Triumphe
Another pretty door!
The boys were able to use a pole to keep their boat moving at the Tuileries Gardens

These boys are such good travelers!
Enjoying some excellent French pasteries
Some of our favorite parts about Paris were eating the delicious food, walking along the River Seine, visiting the museums especially the Orsay and Orangerie, and stopping for a coffee and dessert.
Paris is an amazing city!
