Quote is from a random crazy guy on the train....I was talking to the girls and he started yelling at me asking if I smoked and had cigarettes and when I timidly replied "no" he yelled at me to shut up! Haha.........it was funny and strange.....
So my Idaho girl friends left yesterday early in the morning. We had a really great weekend together (despite 2 of us feeling a little under the weather). I played tourist guide each day and they got a lot accomplished in 3 days! I also got to see something new, The Pantheon. It was INCREDIBLY GORGEOUS and so huge. The big point for me was seeing Victor Hugo's grave...he's the man, obviously. Friday night we went inside the Louvre (and for Free!), then made our way to Willy's Wine Bar (becoming a favorite place for me). The girls bought the wine for me to say thanks, and we had a great time finishing off 2 bottles and a plate of cheese. We met some cool American men that were there on business and just had fun conversations. Afterwards we made our way to the Eiffel tower so they could see it at night all lit up and twinkling! They were really happy about that. Saturday we slept in a bit then headed off to see more sites, including Sacre Coeur and Moulin Rouge at night. I can tell the girls really enjoyed their visit to Paris and were very grateful to have me to help them around and a free place to stay!
Yesterday I slept in quite a bit, then made my way back to the city. It was the 1st Sunday of the month so I headed to Musee Rodin and saw some great sculptures by Rodin, including "The Thinker". It was really cool to see. The museum is in his old house, a big mansion just near Les Invalides, in a great location. It was a bit cold outside so I walked just a little bit around the city and then got back home to get warm and clean my studio. Today I was back to work taking the kids to school and going to my stretching class. It feels kind of nice to get back into our schedule with everyone in school...
