July vacation: Paris

Basically, this will be a photo dump of our vacation in France this past month. There will be a few more posts to show the other places we travelled, but enjoy Paris first!

One day Luc and I walked over to Jardin des Plantes which is a botanical garden, but also has a zoo, which he loved.

Luc thought the ostrich was playing with balls. Other nearby kids shouted that it had potatoes. I love imagination.

Turtles from Madagascar!

 

We also walked over to Notre Dame. While the rest of the tourists were taking pictures of the incredible structure, we were gazing at the excavator working just in front of it.

I love that there's another little boy captivated in the same way!

Jardin du Luxembourg, beautiful!

but the real treat was watching the guy on the lawnmower.

Me, Luc, and Flo

Dinner with Alex and Florent's cousin, Gregoire.

Amazing lamb.
