Paris

Day 1

In Paris we drove around the Arc de Triumph in a round-about that had 7 exits. Then we tried to find a parking place and it took a long time, but we eventually found one that was dug deep into the ground. Our apartment was very small and Dad and I had to sleep together. It was very old and it had steep spiral stairs that led to the small upstairs bedroom.

On our first evening we went for a short  walk and saw the Notre Dame cathedral. It's just a big fancy church. Around the entrance was carvings of saints and Saint Denis was one. There is a legend about him, he got his head chopped off and then he picked up his head, rinsed it off and walked a few km with it in his hands.

This is Saint Denis

The Art And The Climb Day 2

We took the subway to the L'Orangerie to see some art. The room that Monet's Waterlillies were in was a circle room where art was on all the walls. Then we went to the Eiffel tower and went up to the top. We thought that we could climb to the top, but you have to climb to the 2nd level and then take the elevator to the top. When we got to the top we could see forever. We could see the Arc de Triumph and Notre Dame cathedral from the top, but we couldn't see Saint Denis though.

The Drive Day 3
I hate driving.  We drove to Chateau Guibert to stay with a couple named Anne and Malgwyn.
