It all begins in Paris...
We arrived off the Eurostar in to Paris Gare du Nord on time and excited. We decided to put our bags in the lockers at the station rather than carrying them around so packed up our little bags and headed off to see the sites.
Being new in the tourist game we started our adventure with a guided boat trip …
Musee Rodin
... a coupled figure, a man and a woman kissing passionately, on the Gates: The Kiss. It was removed from the sculpture before it was exhibited because Rodin felt that it contradicted the hellish atmosphere of the Gates. The Kiss is one of the figures that was enlarged and later celebrated on its own.
We walked around the gardens for a while and took a bunch of pictures. Some of us made it more interesting by posing like the sculptures, (see pictures). ...
Do as the Parisians Do...
... show. It was absolutely amazing. Stunning and memorable beyond belief. A great experience shared with my sister.
Now you think our evening would end there. No there's more. How about a spontaneous puppet kareoke show on the metro? Yes. We had a hilairous but rather entertaining musical number from three reggae puppets. It was cool man!
All in all today was a great day. Really enjoyed it.

La Marche
... day. This was definitely a day we tested the kids patience by staying at the Louvre until 8:30 then walking to Pont Neuf and back home. By the way, our apartment is awesome and close to Luxembourg gardens which is the largest most well manicured garden I have ever seen. I will definitely make the trip back to Paris someday!!! ...
Home of the Elusive Eiffel Tower Light Show
... musician and toasted by the masses. After tons of fun on the steps, we left to try to catch the Eiffel Tour lights show for the second time. We cut it way too close, but we made it! It was beautiful with lots of sparkly lights. After that, we headed back to the hostel. This time we were able to go to bed without any drama.
The next day, we had a bit of free time because we weren't leaving for Brussels til the afternoon. We decided to go on an adventure ...
