OMG, this woman is going to mug us!

We slept in today… seriously… I’m in Paris and all I feel like I’m doing is sleeping! Showers and lunch were next on our agenda and then off to the Louvre for round two! We went straight to Napoleons apartment. It was soo extravagant. I loved the vanity!


Can I have one for Christmas please?! We walked around a lot but I didn’t look at much. I think it stresses me out a little too much. We met a woman from Alabama who got all of her things stolen the day before. We were all just waiting to find out it was really a joke--- like here’s the American who is making us feel sorry for her only to find out she is about to mug us and take us hostage!

We left the Louvre and went outside to take pictures in front of the pyramid.


It was chilly today which was a good switch! This weather is soooo unpredictable! Jen Win called while we were outside to tell Big she is ENGAGED! Holy moly! Moving on, gelato was next on the agenda and then dinner at the “spot.” It started to pour while we were eating so we waited it out. I had the roasted chicken and fries--- talk about freakin good! We made it back to the fiap and ran into the Banes who were going to some exhibit on Marie Antoinette and to see all the lights! (all the museums were turning all their lights on for this one night) and it happens once a year. We waited in line for TWO hours only to get to the door and be turned away!


We saw the arc de triomphe for the first time at night--- BEAUTIFUL! We went to the Eiffel Tower after that to souvenir stores and we all got crepes—I had a chocolate crepe that was much better than the first one! And that was the end of my Saturday!


First time to see the Arc de Triomphe! Absolutely Beautiful!

I don't know what the deal was with this woman... but I supported her cause for one euro!
