Bonjour de Paris!
I’m having a hard time believing that we have been in Paris for 5 days. If we were on vacation we could be leaving already but we’re not on vacation, and slowly the reality of it is sinking in.
It’s especially fantastic we are staying because we are on a crazy sleep schedule still. I think we underestimated the effect jet lag has on a three year old…today we woke up at noon! Hopefully we can get our sleep schedule back to normal really soon because we haven’t had much time to explore. Our crazy sleep schedule coupled with the fact the airline lost our kid carrier backpack means we have been staying with in walking distance from the apartment.
We were very happy when we got a phone call telling us that the carrier was being delivered today…and in case you were wondering, deliverymen in France also can’t tell time. Sometime in between 4 and 6 was really almost 7…but we were happy to get it.
With Nicholas safely in his carrier we headed out to explore. First we went to the park so Nicholas could play on the playground and in the sandbox. Brendan told him we were going so he could burn off some energy and Nicholas was very adamant he didn’t want to be on fire…Brendan quickly explained it was just an expression!
After the park we walked East and found ourselves in the Place de la Bastille, the square where the Bastille prison once stood. We took the long way back home and after looking on the map we discovered we went in a big triangle. But taking the long way is the best way to see the city!!
Love,
Laura, Brendan and Nicholas
