Out with the young, in with the not so young.


Please play with me

Sunday, all four of us got off early to return to the Musée d'Orsay. Claire was anxious to show Debbie all the cool stuff she liked - which was quite a lot.







After that, we crossed the Seine and picnicked in the Tuillaries gardens. Then a walk to the  Musée de Louvre and places beyond tired me so I left the girls at Notre Dame and went 'home'. They went shopping in one of the biggest crush of people I've seen.

Three gals in the new
Paris. Notice the
Arc de Triomphe
in the background
This is the Grand Arch.
It is actually an office
building on both sides.

The next day, Monday, we went to the 'new' section of Paris and saw the Grand Arch. This is a section of Paris dedicated to modern sky scrapers and big business. The buildings and landscaping were done in interesting and aesthetically delightful ways.

Next morning, Debbie and Claire were off to Karlsruhe early and Mary Lea and I had about 30 minutes before her sister and her guy (Lila and Milton) arrived.
