Today we went to the Musee D’Orsay. We left our apt. as early as we could (to maximize our time that Max might not be cranky looking at art). The art was fantastic, although we did not get to linger over anything much. Keep moving! we always say.

We ate lunch on the move, rushing back to the apartment for naptime. (Quiche is hard to eat with your hands while walking up hill, but when you are starving, you can make it work.)

After naptime, we ventured back out to Le Bon Marché dept store- it was very upscale. We ended up spending most of our time in the kids section looking at toys for all the boys. The clothes for Jen and Chris were very cool, but also very expensive, so we did not purchase any Parisian fashions.

Dinner was “on the run” again, as we were hungry and indecisive about where and when to stop to eat. So as markets closed around us, we bought bread, fruit, and dessert and went home to eat in our own kitchen after another busy day.
