From August: Hello everyone, this is our first official update of the trip and I have a lot of things to tell you all about Paris. First I want to start off by saying that it is 10pm here although it is as bright as if it were 7pm in Waco and it just feels really weird. Ok, now for the day summary. First we had breakfast in our apartment and Abigail and I had a French cereal called Lion Wild that was like caramel covered pockets with chocolate inside. And everyone else had a baguette sandwich but Athan and Mommy also had cool French yogurt and Daddy had a healthy cereal.
After breakfast we went to The American Cathedral in Paris for church. And it was a very beautiful service and building. After church Abigail, Athan, Daddy, and I climbed 100+ stairs to get to the top of the steeple in the church and the view was amazing we could see the whole city from up there including, the Eiffel Tower, Louvre, Cathedrals, etc.
Next we went to the Latin quarter and had lunch at an outside restaurant and we had escargot, duck, creme brûlée, beef stew, fondue and many more delicious things.
After that we went to the Luxembourg gardens and walked through the beautiful surroundings.
Next we went to the Catacombs which was very interesting because there was nowhere else like it, and it was very spooky and creepy.
After the Catacombs we went to dinner at a Chinese restaurant with very good food but a super small bathroom.
And finally we visited the Luxembourg gardens again and watched high schoolers play tennis during their off time, and I’ll have to say, it was a very intense tennis match.
That is all for today thank you for joining in on our microblog.
