We then took a stroll through the city, over the river and past the Sorbonne to Luxembourg Gardens. We found a little shop that made baguette sandwiches, paninis and crepes - so we got some lunch and had a little picnic in the park. Then a French policewoman yelled at everyone to get off the grass so we moved the picnic to a bench.
After lunch we headed back to the river where we got back on the batobus and cruised around the river to the Louvre. The museum is amazing. We saw the Venus di Milo and The Mona Lisa, but the most impressive art was the building's architecture!
After the Louvre we headed back to the hotel. Tomorrow we plan to get in to the city a little later, so we can be there in the evening and see why they call Paris the City of Lights!

oh Leah, I am so very jealous that you are eating that beatiful piece of french bread. It looks delectable.
that is a very cute face will is making standing by the river.
so what would you guys say is the best part of Paris so far? Notre Dame?
Interesting that you were allowed to take pictures inside the Notre Dame and not Westminster Abbey. Does Paris seem more "touristy" than London?
Great pictures, as usual! Will does look very cute in that shot. And I love Leah carrying the unwrapped bread on her back. Did you see that alot? Sure does look yummy! (Leah heaven, I imagine. A loaf of bread and call it lunch!)
I'm so looking forward to hearing all about the whole trip when you get back. And seeing what Paris at night looks like in your next post!
Ayez une bonne nuit.
great gargoyle shot and i don't recall a shot of will where he doesn't look cute!
