Paris!!

We had a whirlwind trip flying back from the US this summer but managed to squeeze in a quick stop in Paris on the way back to Bangalore.  Next time - We've got to make it longer!  What an amazing place!! 

Breakfast at a cute and busy French bistro
Fresh orange juice, croissants, cheese, jam & coffee!  YUM!
Bellies are full!  Time to see the city!
Hold Still.  Cooperate.  Love each other....just for two seconds?!  :0)

"Walks Along the Seine"
I could not stop singing the lyrics to "Our Last Summer" by ABBA as we walked around Paris!  :0)
Mom & Daddy's turn!
Batobus
Notre Dame
Magnifiques!
Taking it all in

Spectacular
One last picture of the whole family in front of the Cathedral and then we are ON THE MOVE again! :0)
Waiting for the water taxi

Heading into the Zoo


Uh Oh!  We've got some hot and tired kids on our hands!!

That's nothing a ride on the carousel can't cure!

Rachel on the Antelope
Erica snags an ostrich
Michael proud as a peacock but riding on an antelope :0)

David goes for the gorilla!

Cured!  A ride on the carousel & an ice cold drink can solve a world of troubles (including hot, tired kids with achy feet!)


Chillin'
Guaranteed they were all contemplating a swim in the Seine!

Pretty!
Hmmmm....Wonder where they get this from!?  Chip off the 'ole block, aye?!
(Just in case you are confused....I am NOT the "block" I am referring to!)


"Sun is in my eyes, Mom!!!"  Arghhh!  I know!  Me too!  hahahah!
Musee du Louvre




.Uh oh!  Jet lagged and literally SLEEPING on the table!  Poor Erica!
The kids were the most excited to see the Eiffel Tower so naturally we saved that until LAST!!!
WOW!  There she is!

We made it, Guys!!!



In the shadow of the great Eiffel Tower

Smooch!!!!


Your turn, Guys!  Sibling Smooches!!  YEAH, RIGHT, Mom!!!!
Trying to keep cool!!
Dinner time and now David's the jet lagged one who
 has fallen asleep in my lap!! 
"Walks along the Seine.  Laughing In the Rain.  Our last Summer.  Memories that Remain."
